Conversing

By: Vincent Paul Gonzales

"What ever can I tell you,
wherever can I start?"

"If you're gonna say what you need to say,
just please don't break my heart…"

"I never meant to hurt you…
I never meant this here…
but my love for you has ended now…
It's been over, long, I fear…"

"How can this be truthful?
You've told me many lies…
And now you walk away from me
and destroy my very life?"

"I don't want to lie like…
like we've lived this lie before…
it's better now my darling…
if I walk out of your door…"

"Baby please, I love you…"

"So let me go this way…
Don't make things any harder…
it just hurts much more that way…"

"But what about our future?
And what about our plans"

"They'll continue with some others…
with you I can not stand…"

"But what of aspirations?
And both of our sure dreams?"

"I'm not so sure anymore…
it isn't fair to thee…"

"I love you darling sweetheart..."

"My love is not the same…
I do not have my love for you..
at least not in that way…"

"Must it be this way dear?"

"I'm sorry that it's so…
it's just not fair to either of us, if I don't let you go…"

"I'll wait then my sweet darling…
and should you come my way…
then we'll both know that we're meant to be
and that we'll be together again someday."
