Out of your way,
that's what I be,
I tried to bow out
gracefully,
to give you all your room
you cried out for,
to leave me far behind.
Time and time again,
you kicked up dust,
into my eyes,
but these signs
I couldn't see,
or didn't want to
at the least,
for my love was all too great,
to let you walk away,
from my dreams of we.
But in my heart
I could truly see,
you needed your freedom
from my love and me,
though my eyes shut tight
in pain.
So I give you the room you need,
to chase this anything but me,
and can only wonder why.
Wasn't I good to you,
wasn't I good enough for you?
Didn't I love you,
wasn't it a love
you knew
was true.
Was that not what you wanted,
I guess you have made that all
so clear,
if that's what you wanted,
then you would still be here.
