Upon Leaving
I slowly slip out from your
warm bed unnoticed
stretching here and there
in search of my clothes in the dark
trying not to wake you
from your slumber
then i whisper in your ear
that i love you, but i must leave
for I've overstayed my welcome
in your arms
as your love for me has faded
with the passing of the time
our secret romance
coming to an end
and i refuse to believe it
was all in my head
