My heart understands what my head does not,
You try to justify yourself when you need not,
Or are you trying to convince yourself?

You cannot bring yourself to tell me in person,
Or do you not have the time?
So you tell me over the internet
One line at a time.

No matter what you did or said,
I could never hate you,
For a promise I made myself so long ago.

For after so long, you went to another,
My friend, you hurt me and only time
Will ease it, so slow down and take a look
Around you for you may not be on this path for long.
