Dwell

When will I stop looking at the phone? Hoping that you will call When will the memories stop blinding me? Choking me When will I stop wondering if I made a mistake? Even though I know what I did was right When will I stop wishing I could see you? Kiss you Hug you When will I stop wanting you to appear and beg me to take you back? When will I stop holding my breath? And realize that you are not coming back And I am better off leaving you in the past When will I realize that it was your loss and not mine? Realize that it was you That stopped caring Stop trying Stop believing Stop working at us And not one tear has fell from my eye It was me that was the glue That kept us together And I was also the one That broke us apart Sad, yes Regretful, no I know leaving you was right Because relief is the only emotion left dwelling in my soul
