Rope
As i watch you leave
My hands are tied, by ropes you can't see
The rope you let go of.
I am suffering, I can't breathe
I don't have this under control
I don't know what to do
The one who made my life easy
Is no more by my side.
Alone on this boat, you were supposed to help me ride.
There have been days, i've died laughing
There have been days i've wept
There have been nights ,endless.
I miss your smile, the way you caress
Why did you lie? I don't know
You expected flowers from a seed you didn't sow
As I sit down, writing, tears blurring what I see
I can't help but think about what we could be.
But
You needed to leave, it was necessary
I can't stop but tell myself, it's temporary
(mood changes)
I don't want to let you take my mind space
You don't deserve it
You've hurt me in ways, you don't know
The toxicity of your presence, didn't let me grow
Its time to wipe the tears, its time to let go of the rope,
No expectations, no hope.
