The Inevitable Decision
You were want I wanted,
what I really thought was perfect
for me.
I was full of emotion and
passion overwhelmed me.
I have never been here before,
and I made promises I could not keep.
Yet I saw the flags
I ignored them thinking they
were trivial.
In reality they were reasons
why I was strained.
I was told to stay,
giving this a chance.
After all, there were good
qualities still in you.
You loved unconditionally,
accepted me as I am.
I still saw problems,
and I thought you
were ignoring the obvious.
Trying to understand
why I was worth it.
When I am not.
How do I continue down a path
I choose not to walk?
My choices were not my own,
my previous decisions
made to appease the masses.
Yet it is I who is left feeling
discontented.
I feel I would be living a lie
if I kept walking this path.
And it would only devastate you then,
instead of now.
My decision must be carried out
for both of our sakes.
More importantly yours
than mine.
Because I do care that much.
