And I always wonder..
What?
I always wondered why you just left?
You didn't fight for me
I found myself asking if you ever even loved me
You left me
My heart was still filled with love and it was over flowing
And I was left by you
and all that love made me drown
And you couldn't even jump in and save me
I started to run dry
The love I couldn't give you
Dried up
And I was left in an dessert for a while
Day and night
My heart was aching
Questions floating
Crying
Asking whether I was enough, why wasn't I enough
Why did you lie?
And I started to heal
Day by day
And it took long for the dessert to become a garden filled with beautiful roses and fountains
One night I laid and looked at the moon
And a tear slipped from my eye.......
But I looked around and smiled.....
And realized that because you left I became more than I ever could imagine...
And some fool asked me whether I'd go back to the one who left me drowning.
I simply smiled and said why would I?
I always wondered why you left.....
But the reason became clear when I saw that it was to become who I am now.....
So now I say....
Thank you for leaving
And don't you dare come back...
