Leaving Love

by Marcus   Jan 13, 2007


You know all the letters I wrote you each day.
Written by my heart of ink.
Well this particular poem you might not like.
Because I had some time to think.

I thought about the moments I spent with you and my son,
I could hear him making the "daddy call.
I thought about you,me and him, and realized,
I didn't love you at all.

It wasn't personality and it wasn't your beauty,
That bring me so much joy.
It was that seed inside your womb.
That I called my little boy.

I know this is wrong and I know you are hurt.
Because your love for me was real.
It just kills me that I didn't love you the same.
I just took advantage of how you feel.

It just isn't right to be with someone.
And you know that love is not there
"Playing with emotions is the greatest sin ever.
And it just ain't fair.

So that is why I stand footed in this confession of truth.
Not holding anything back.
Tell my son I love him and he's my heart.
But daddy gotta pack.
