Walk Away

How many times 
can I say
I love you
In what way 
can I make 
you understand
I love you
What is it you 
want from me 
what should I do?

There is such a lack 
of this and that
How many times can 
I go back
How many!! 
My mind screams stop
but my heart says Go
I feel like a wave tossed 
to and fro..

What is there left of us
a piece here a piece there
Sometimes I don't
even care
Who is going to pick up
these pieces anyway?
Not you I see 
as your walking away...
