In the gloom of darkness , praying for sleep.
Wanting to erase our final night together.
You told me I no longer had your love.
That sad night you had cut our tether.
You had lied and hurt me once before.
Now again you've caused me pain.
I believed you when you wanted to return.
You told me your love would sustain.
Months have passed, now you've called again.
Wanting us to talk tomorrow.
I said I needed time to think, and to ponder.
Seeing you again would revive my sorrow.
You called for my answer, hope in your tone.
I told you it was not to be.
Because of your whims, I've suffered much.
It's time my heart is set free.
I said "no" to you, and a love without trust.
I can't go on with your whimsical ways.
You'll hurt others that might love you.
Hopefully, I'll find much better days.
What I didn't tell you was that I still care.
My heart still aches for your gentle touch.
I hunger for your comforting arms to hold me.
I'll always love you so very very much.
