Don'T Look Back

I watch you walk away

Counting each step one by one

My emotions begin to run wild inside

Please don't stop, Don't look back at me

Just keep going, My heart can't take it

Why must you tease me and leave me

Our eyes can't meet a second time

For my resistance is not that great

I'm dying inside, I can't come with you

So if you ever cared for me, Please...

Just leave..and Don't look back

you captured that perfectly. I told someone nearly exactly that. no one ever tells you that when you fall in love you sign up to be tortured and torn between the wills of two

Sometimes this seems to the very best way of saying goodbye and then moving on with ones only life! Eliminting perhaps the chains of binding and possibly residue; which holds only empty hope within our own dreams, towards a brigter and better future, towards what our tur hearts long for within our lives!? Excellent write dear Tyesha! Love and warmth always, John!:)
