The Avoidance of a Senseless Path.
When I took the i
out of what I said
I was left with sad,
Promises are the prom
that doesn't always
come true
with corsages
and heavenly nights.
I knew we weren't
right for each other,
and so I left,
I would rather
hurt you now,
when it is far
too early too matter,
then to lead you
down avenues of love
that only become dead ends
that only become dead ends.
Many others would
simply use you,
for your beauty.
I would rather you find
the love you seek
in an honest heart.
I am not ready for
the kind of pain
the misdirection's
of my affections
would leave
in your eyes.
Far less tears are shed,
facing my back now,
then by backing away
from my face later
haunted by the false
love found there.
Cruel to be kind perhaps,
but honest and fair,
Farewell my lovely lady,
Godspeed to your next love,
and may it be ever true to you.
