Two and a Half Tears

Traveling home on the bus today

I got to thinking about the way

I treated you while you were with me

That wasn’t the way it was supposed to be

I’m sorry…

We had our good times and our bad

But after two years I started getting sad

The longer we were together, the closer we grew

But the more I wanted to be just with you

I couldn’t …

I tried, I did, I tried my best

But I just could not pass the test

Of treating you like what you were worth

A brown haired angel here on earth

I failed you…

Please understand that I didn’t want to

Treat you the way I treated you

I fought the urges and feelings for soo very long

I had to confess to myself, I wasn’t that strong

I’m Human…

The mistreatment started off slow

But with time it started to grow

Until at last I had to admit

I could no longer contain it

I hurt you…

It shocked me, scared me, that this I could do

Considering how much I truly loved you

But I realized that it just had to be

If I loved you that much I had to save you from me

I loved you…

The hardest thing I have ever had to do

Was causing all of that pain for you

The realization of my darkest fears

I loved you, let you go, and now I cry

Two and a half tears…

I hope one day that you will know

It was because of love I had to let you go

Some people, together, just weren’t meant to be

That’s the way it was for you and me

I guess, until the day you realize

I will always have tears in my eyes

One, two, two and a half tears.
