Bitter-Sweet Pain
Oh, the sound of your voice
rings in my ear.
I remember how we talked
eventhough we haven't spoken in months.
As the days passed,
I longed for you more and more,
Daydreaming about you with me,
and how things would've been.
But when that decision came,
the decision that would make us or break us,
I asked you for help,
for your guidance.
The pain in knowing
that I couldn't have you,
ached at me,
and my heart.
The knowlegde in knowing
the emptiness without you,
when I let you out of my life,
scared me.
It was either pain, or company.
Either way, pain was coming.
So, I asked you,
And you decided to let go
Of the company so the pain...
could "ease".
Oh, how I wish,
That the pain would "ease",
but it just came harder...
much harder.
Pain...
Bitter...
Hurting me so much,
cause I let you go.
Pain...
Sweet...
Knowing that I
won't force you to love me.
Oh, the Bittery-Sweetness of
Pain.
