No Title, Yet - 54
If I leave, I’ll be all alone.
I’ll never have peace through the night.
I will truly be on my own.
For every breath, I’ll have to fight.
I’ll never again be the same,
Knowing that you didn’t love me.
And, whenever I hear your name,
I’ll know we were not meant to be.
But, sitting her, I have a thought:
My future is my own to make.
A happy life I’ve always sought.
My happy life you’ll never take.
So, I choose today to leave you
And, forever, escape your hold.
I will live my life warm and true
And come in from out of the cold.
