I can’t keep loving you.

With you my heart felt freer
With you my spirit felt lighter
With you our love seemed perfectly true
I miss you, ache for you
Still love you,
Still think about you more than I should
And, I know in my heart
Even if I tried to forget you, I know I never could
I’ve cried so many tears
Can’t understand, why were you untrue?
I’ve slept so many restless nights
As my mind replayed all those unnecessary fights
I can’t cry anymore
I can’t wish for what I once believed in before
Instead, I beg and plead
Please let me fall into slumbers of the perfect dream
Please let my eyes close and only imagine
The man who is my everything
Please let me somehow forget everything I ever knew
After I let myself trust him
After the first I ever let myself say to him, I love you.
