You can’t fix her,
No one can.
It’s not your fault
You’re just one man.
She tried to play,
Tried to pretend
The damage is done
No making amends.
Walk away now –
Don’t look in the rearview.
You can’t fix her
You’re not super glue.
She’s far past
The lost and found.
There’s no repairing
What’s long gone now.
The harshest reality: knowing how much you thought through all of this. Knowing, without a doubt, it meant never seeing me again for the rest of your life. Knowing that kiss, that drawn-out hug, that long stare into my tear-filled eyes, would be the last. You knew those final moments with me would become the closing words written on the last page of the few pages of my existence in the story of your life; and you still chose to say goodbye.
