The Rejection

No, I will not go with you
I now have better things to do

Stay away from me I’ve told you this before
Just walk away don’t be such a bore

No, I wont, so just walk away and let me be
We had our time and now i’m finally free
 
Now you want more of what we had
We had our time you should be glad

I’ve changed the lock so keep your key
I pray to heaven you will forget me

Oh stop crying look, everyone is staring
So now you’re mad and started swearing

What are you doing? Put that gun down
Everyone is looking, so just turn around

A crack was heard and he felt a pain
His body on the ground a bullet in his brain

The people ran to safety as rain began to fall
There is nothing else to do but make a 911 call

So very sad. Of the relationship we know little. The media will feed. Nicely done, my friend!

Hi Kim. Some relationships are just too much to deal with but guess we are meant to have them.
