Sacrifice

Please don\'t leave me hanging for years without closure

Please don\'t make me wait for years just to be disappointed

I thought I would be happy when you finally returned for sure

But even with the millions of scenarios that I have thought of when you were gone

Was not enough to prepare me for how my heart broke and my spirits crushed

 

People change and people go 

But I was naive enough to stay rooted in the same ground

Anticipating to hear those familiar footsteps running towards me

People asked me why am I so stubborn

I replied because of a promise I was determined to keep

Which I did not know sounded so silly

I was silly

I should have listened and given up 

Instead of spending years, living for you

And wasting my time with you as my sole life purpose

They were not reciprocated

 

Yet now, it is all too late

I\'ve lost it all

That I feel so empty inside

I\'m merely a hollow shell of who I once was

My final sacrifice is not for your happiness

But for my relief

That I would be able to see the person you once were in heaven

Then, with that, I would finally be at peace

 

Laying in your arms

Hold me for a last kiss

Repeating my first words to you as my final goodbye

And then, you might finally mourn the loss of what we had

Of what we could have
