Alla
Convincing you has never been easy.
And I still haven't managed to get you to see
that this choice you have made so abruptly
may haunt you and keep you from ever being free.
You are so beautiful in so many ways
and worthy of all the good you desire.
But, somehow your mirror won't reflect this to you.
Seduced across country to find what you require.
Visions of us will not leave me alone.
Closing my eyes only brings them on stronger.
I cherish the care and loyalty you've shown me.
I'll love you forever. I have you no longer.
Wishing that something I could have said
would make you believe what I know is true.
You don't need to do this. You deserve so much better.
External provisions can be found inside you.
I'll never forget how you nurtured me through
the darkness that rid me of all of my fire.
I've thrived on your honesty. You never hold back.
Inside you I find so much to admire.
I only hope that this brings you some comfort
if on the horizon you'll find peace and joy.
I'll be here each time you need to remember
and if you get hurt, his world I'll destroy.
So, this one's for you, my lovely friend.
Take care of those boys, and know that we'll miss you.
And whatever it is that you aspire to achieve
Know I'll be with you to help make it come true.
