Sorry

As these words are about to flow 
Like acid secreting from my mouth, 
This is where you have led me. 

Holding on to something that I cannot just ignore. 
I refuse to put my heart nor
My mind 
Through this anymore. 
It is slowly killing me,
Internally.

Not knowing if you will ever be real with how you feel. 
Not knowing whether or not all this is just in my beautiful imagination. 

All these questions 
All these misconceptions 
Mean nothing now. 
No more “what ifs.”

Contrarily, I will miss you.
I will miss your laugh, 
Your witty comments and
Your cute little compliments. 

But I need to start anew. 
Something completely different 
And far away from you.

So I have to let you go now,
For my inner peace, 
For my sanity, 
Because being friends with you 
Is not and will never be 
Enough for me. 

Sorry.
