Should I have lied
And kept on with the charade?
Would that have been better
And made you stay?
Was it wrong that I did it so suddenly
Like ripping away a bandaid?
Or should I have gone more slowly
Like peeling away a bandage?
Did you ever feel anything at all
Or were you afraid to show me your feelings?
Did your love for me disappear
Just like your optimism?
Was your loneliness taking over
And got worse when I was gone?
Did I make a bad decision
And left when you needed me most?
Can things be like before
When we couldn't be apart?
Is there anything I can do
To somehow make it up to you?
