Bitter Are the Tears of Release

My life was good
until you came
You changed my life
Im not the same
As I was when we met
The first time.

I love you but...
I can't live anymore
knowing that you might not
feel the same way.

Having to kick
you out of my life
Is not going to be the
easiest thing I've ever done
but the pain is just...
unbearable.

Tears stroll down my face,
As if they are at a park.
But it gets crowded after a few moments
because more join them.

Soon, they roll off the brown surface of my face
Onto my jacket.
They just won't stop coming.
Like it's a perfect day out. 
The bitter weather is just
so appealing to them.
