Broken wings that still fly

Because I know you still love me
I must say Good bye
It’s not that I don’t love you the same
It’s just that you one day chose a
Night to not love me at all.

You chose a night to forsake my love,
And to disturb the trust, my trust in you
You chose a night to trade all of what I defined to be true,
With someone you didn’t even love or even care for
And darling because I know you still love me
I must now disappear...

I must fade away into the unknown,
You‘ve left me no other choice
But to make red my new favorite tone
I will sleep into the night, you won‘t hear
My foot steps, you won‘t hear me shout for help
I will let out my heart, and the birds could hum away
My death
Because I know you still love me, I must say Good bye

Believe in me when I say, that I didn’t choose death, Rather
It was death that chose me...
Since now a wife is what you call her, all because of a new
Created life; I must hush away into the unknown
And wonder about all of the ifs
No one knows I even existed, so no one will know
About my love for you
It saddens me and that’s why I write this letter...
I write about my love, a love that was never fully given
The chance to blossom into a different light...
Now that you are calling her wife because of a new created life
I must let go of you, and I must not even love you at all
I must hush away all the chapters that we created and defined
I must wash them into another life, because our life together
Will never again be found...

Because I know you still love me I must say good bye
I have to be out of the picture, not just physically
But emotionally too...There are too many memories
Too many things, I refuse to know now about you
And how you’ve been, though I try so many times
To pick up the receiver, or to write you an e-mail,
To see of how you’ve been, but I stop and return
To my senses, What the hell am I doing?
Do you even care about how desperate I am to know if you are ok?
I know that most of the time; it is my pain that writes these words
And I know one thing to be true, I know you still love me
Because not only you’ve told me that you always will,
But it’s because I feel you every night in my deepest and quietest dreams
Thus why I say Good Bye, it is because you once loved me so much
You thought you would never be able to love after I am gone
But we both know that that night has proven all of our thoughts wrong...

Because I didn’t know how much you really loved me, I must say good bye.
