if you leave
the way you say so harshly that you must
i hope that when you leave
it is never faltering
it is so undeniably certain
it is so encompassing that you must
because if you leave
what would be left
a shell of everything i thought i knew
of everything i thought to be
...
you see the danger the oh so danger of such a love of ours
is it so encompassing
so overpowering
addictive
inspring
justifiably cruel
so if you leave
leave
and i beg don't ever look back
because i'll be here waiting
waiting for the sun to rise
waiting for the moon to fall
waiting for the leaves to change
for the reason of suffering
is a season of forgiveness
of regrets
of sorrow
a season i cannot bear
