What Does It Take To Say Goodbye
What does it take to walk away,
From all the abuse, when you chose to stay,
Through phony tears and avid routines,
Training your mind not to leave,
When compassion becomes toxic to your heart and soul,
When you become used to not letting go,
When your love runs so deep, yet you cannot accept,
The mind games, the pain, the disrespect,
You wash your hands and forgive everyday,
Honestly...how much more can you take?,
Regretting you allowed it to go this far,
It meant nothing all this time and ended up breaking you heart,
Yet you endured...and stood by his side,
But what does it take to say goodbye?
