I Love You Just Enough

A restless fever Burning like a torch in your eyes… My aching heart can feel The desperate need you try to hide.. A part of you is longing To be free from me, I know… And even when my cries, I come to realize: That I love You Just enough to let you go… I can't stand to see You searching for the words To tell me gently, what went through… If one of us must suffer, It will give me The satisfaction just to know, That I was the one to ease your pain, By saying what you want to hear: Bye! I love you just enough, to let you go… I love you just enough, to let you go… Why should I go through the motion Of pretending everything is fine, Just holding off on letting you go To satisfy myself until now? I have been clinging to a hope That is dying slowly… I never came through my mind That I was the one to say goodbye… And this time forever! COPY WRITE©2009
