The great love of my life just walked away, for the last time
I fall in love with you every time I see you, preferring to forget your flaws
It was your smile, your cheeky grin ~ you’re looking up at me from under those lashes
I fear I would have you back in a heartbeat, if we were to meet again eye to eye
It’s the hardest thing, to choose what’s better for me, over my hearts desire
It would take years of reconciliation, together apart for the wound to heal to scar –
I think about it, us and you hoping, wishing, looking for bargains to bring us back
But it’s too late now
You left me four times, and I took you back; I could never trust a man like that

I’m sorry. It sucks, to be really close to getting to something amazing yet only leaving disappointment. But, like I said, you have your limits. Abide by your gut. It’s usually right. 😊
