I came here to say goodbye

So why can't I say goodbye?

The tears were falling against my will

and you still hadn't let go of my face

Don't say goodbye, you said

Your thumb wiped beneath my eyes

and your lips found mine

and my hands grabbed your t-shirt as if I were

holding on for dear life

But these lips aren't mine anymore

so why were you kissing me with them?

I tried to let go

but I could taste your regret

I could taste your love for me on the tip of your tongue

You never let go either

But I knew this wasn't right

You're either mine fully, or not at all

It took the complete strength of all the nights I didn't cry

to rip myself away from you

I cupped my own face, rubbing it

Coming here was a mistake, I admitted

And you shook your head

confused with your actions

because you don't know how you could

get off the phone with her

and quickly get comfortable with me

But I had to go
