Painful Goodbyes

Painful Goodbyes

I want to stay with you

but trust me when I say I have to go.

I don't want to leave but my time is over

and we can't go on.

I always will love you

though your tore my heart in two

I can't find what possibly went wrong

but i have to accept that now you are gone.

No more sweet, soft, good night lullibies

cause now we are exchanging painful goodbyes.

Tough but proper decision. Will pay off in the long run. One has to do what one has to do.
