Leave

I want you to leave

Is that selfish of me?

I wish for you to fly away to new places

And forget.

Of me and the things we’ve done,

A whisper

A fading dream

I want you to leave

Because they say the heart grows fonder with absence

So go,

Leave, travel and explore distant lands

And One day you might come back and see

Me, in a new light

As someone so familiar yet foreign

I want you to leave

And experience new things

Make new memories

With new people

Yet you still hear my voice in your mind

Saying snarky comments and making you laugh

I want you to leave

So that when you’re gone you might realize

Who you think of when you’re missing home

I want you to leave

So that I can change and grow

Realize my mistakes and become more

For when you come home

And We can start over with better understanding

I want you to leave

they say if you love someone let them go

So go!

Go and don’t look back

because if you do,

my treacherous heart will go with you

And this facade I put up will all come tumbling down

I want you to leave

Go and pursue your dreams

No matter how far and wide they might take you

Deserts and oceans may split us

But Know that I will always be by your side

There if you need me

Here when you come home
