Walking Away

Walking away,
I’m walking away.
Not because of pride, not because of shame.
Wishing, waiting, hoping.
I’m standing here.
You’re throwing it away.
Good enough,
I never could be good enough.
So I’m walking away.
Come back to me,
Run back to me.
I’m searching for you,
As far as I can see,
Yet you’re gone.
Long gone.
All that’s left is what used to be.
Memories.
Journying around the world,
Looking for what was right in front of you.
Looking you in the eyes,
Yet it wasn’t enough.
So,
I’m letting you go.
Letting you be.
But praying you won’t do the same to me.
For now, I’m walking away,
Dreaming of the day,
When you can return and say,
I’m running back to you,
It was always you.
