Forced
getting it off my chest
no better than the rest
yet chosen
to be with me
was it arrogance or agreed
givn an open door
for pity
my needs unimportant
so I searched elsewhere
ending with same solution
choose Love or emptiness
right or wrong
forced too long.
told you were last choice
against all inside
said yes
for no happiness
many nights I cried
faced with lies.
forced letting go
Knowing all along
we wouldn’t last long
I apologize for my part,
could have saved
heartache and time
never meant to be mine.
needed protection
you couldn’t provide.
no need for goodbye.
-Symphony
