The Affair’s Reality

No! Wait . . . don’t leave
not yet at least
stay with me
just a few more minutes
talk to me
please
I want
to hear you
feel you
just for a few more minutes

I understand
that you have to leave
and I promise
I won’t make this last
as long as my soul
needs it to last
but I need you
I need to feel as if I’m the one
you love

Please . . . wait, don’t go
if you only knew
how much this hurts me
watching you leave
each time I give you my soul
the emptiness
the hurt
the loneliness
and I know . . . in the midst of my tears
I realize
that you told me
before we kissed
before we made love
that you were not alone . . . I know our affair’s reality
but that doesn’t stop the pain
it doesn’t make it go away
it doesn’t stop me from crying
or even hating myself for loving you
but please
stay, just for a little while longer
and I promise
I’ll let you go

Oh mig.. 'I promise I’ll let you go"... is the hardest part of reality.. can we ever really let go..once we love..really love.. Your expression here is moving and sad..

Pulling on my heartstrings again Mig....
