Final No
This moment will pass,
As all before have too,
And it will be clear as glass
That deep down I always knew.
Your walls were painted bright,
And beckoned me in.
Though, something didn't feel quite right
So I kept my thick skin.
Over and over, you toyed with my heart,
Only when I’d be ready to let go,
Would you propose we restart-
So much so, I thought there'd be no final no.
I hope your filled with regret,
Now that you're gone.
They say ‘you're only as good as you get,’
So, it's time to move on.
There'll be no more what if’s,
Or trying one last time.
I'm done with your quips-
I’ll show you just how high I can climb.
