If This Is Where I Leave You

If this is where I leave you
 then let the tears fall fast and quick
  without restraint or holding back.

I have loved you always
 in the forever of our time
  realizing I never once possessed you,
but I was never yours, 
  and you were never mine.

Let me hold my breath a moment
 pausing, as I wave our last goodbye
  it's your time to cry.
