The Decision
THE DECISION
I saw how hard it was for both of us,
I realised that what we had didn’t last,
I spoke to myself confused at last,
Took one glimpse at the situation,
and wanted to act fast.
I did not want it to happen that way,
I never wanted to leave you but couldn’t stay,
I sounded confident but felt stupid,
For letting the love I always wanted decay,
but truth is I will never forget that day.
Sun rising everyday and stars shining every night,
how much you liked the sky,
milky during the day and I wishing to die.
Sending night lights to watch you like spies,
then enjoy the tears of the sky when it cries.
Sad because the beautiful day is gone,
Sad because the love it saw is gone,
broken into pieces just to make a thorn,
that will stab the loved ones to death.
So they feel the pain they caused to the sky.
The decision easy to make,
some say not easy to tell it to thee mate
some say normally made late
but I was too early that is why I hate,
hate who I became after the last debate.
This hard to say but I miss you,
not the you that I always fight to,
not the you that I am used to,
but the you I was attracted to,
the you before I actually knew you,
the you I would say to “I LOVE YOU”
and actually really do.
The crying Ow-jay
