I'm wrap up our painting
in silk and tuck it away,
it still means as much but time changes everything,
I'm sorry I don't feel like I did
when we began,
before commitment and debt
before constantly bickering
and belittling.
I don't know how to make it right,
I've bled my heart into it
and I couldn't suffer the silence
anymore.
I never meant for things to end like this
and it kills me to know
you think I left you for someone else
because the only reason I left you
was me.
I can't make myself conform to what you want
to what I need to be to make it work.
I know it hurts, and I know your heart is torn
but scars and time makes you stronger
and you will hold another in your arms
who can love you better than I ever could.
