That night I sat there shivering in the breeze
Or was it from your angry gaze?
Your disappointment, your hurt were shown
I was quiet as my tears flowed.
Do you not remember the heartbreak I caused?
Right from the beginning I told you
“I don’t want to break your heart”
But I did.
Ten times over.
I told you that night we needed time apart
Your heart especially, it’s literally broken
You need to heal, and I’ll just make it worse
You know you need me gone.
I told you that night I wouldn’t let you put me first
Your health is your priority
As far as I’m concerned, I’m bad for you
Don’t let yourself believe otherwise.
I know you love me, though I’m not sure why
I seem to be the equivalent of pain
Relax, put a smile on your face; heal that body of yours
I’ll be here when you’re all better.
This is no goodbye.
Author notes
He still loves me though I don't deserve it. But I literally make him sick...from the time we broke up until now he's just gotten worse. I told him I was removing myself from his life...he didn't put up much of a fight because I had broken his trust (and his heart) yet again. I think he's forgiven me now, but I'm being stubborn. I care way too much to let him endanger his health for me...it's been 6 months too long. I meant what I said...this is no goodbye. As soon as you get better and start sleeping again...we'll work on that friendship. Promise.

No guarantees
I am trying my hardest...for me...and for her...I do love her. I love her more than anything that I've ever loved. The reason I feel healthier...happier is thoughts of her. The happiness relieves my stress, to a point where I'm not sick. I'm perfect.
As I try to sleep I know it is because I'm stressed, but the moments I am happy I am happy because I am excited...excited to love you and see you.
Maybe from him you do deserve it, in his eyes your are everything; everything in this world. He is hanging on, through happiness and sadness, sickness and in health. I has forgiven too many times...but she always knew deep down that he always will.
This is no goodbye for her and I, but I will work to make it a new beginning, better than before. I shouldn't have to, we should still be lovers.
Feelings run rampant is this as my tears pour like a faucet...once again no rating...my heart is on this <3.
