Time To Walk Away
Whenever the bad times
outweighs the good,
And you have a change of mind
about marriagehood.
And you get to thinking
that just maybe the grass is greenier on the other side,
Because you are tired of always hurting
drowning yourself in tears that you always have cried.
You have noticed for quite some time
that there is a change in the love,
So much you long to leave it all behind
but it is the welfare of the kids that you be thinking of.
It is so sad to say
but the love is no longer there,
You ask yourself why do you still stay?
when in actuality for him you no longer love or care.
You have drifted away from him
you have found that you no longer feel the same,
It is as though he is no longer the same man
in him you have also noticed a change.
You both are just kidding yourselves
for believing that staying together for the kids is what is best,
You both know that the love is no longer there
you both know that walking away is what is best.
The many deceits and lies
just took a major toll on it all,
That no matter how hard you both may try
the love really matters not at all.
