I’ve Learned to Say Goodbye

Was it too much to say that I loved you?

Did it really cause you harm?

Was it too much to say that I needed you,

Before I was ripped from your arms?

But, if your grip had been ever tighter,

Maybe I would have been spared.

But, now that my heart is bleeding, bleeding,

I wonder if you would have cared.

Turn away! Don’t call me back,

I’ve learned to say goodbye.

Don’t you say that I didn’t do my best;

Don’t say I didn’t try.

There’s no love to destroy this hate;

I turned back when it was too late-

I must move on!

This was actually a song I wrote a few years ago. It is based off of the main character in a fantasy novel I am currently writing. Since it probably won’t show up in the story itself, I thought I’d share it here.

Thank you for reading 🙂
