Move On
by Ellen F.

You say you love me
Yet you do not look me in the eye
You want to hold me from morning till nigh’
You want to wipe the tears from my eyes
But you won’t even listen to my cries
You want to protect me
As if I am a precious doll wound only by a key
I would give in to you
If I could forget how you hurt me before
I will always love you
Though never in the same way
If you can not accept my decision
Be gone
Allow me to move on
I know I have lost something that I dearly treasured
But I will keep walking and never look back
You will soon be a distant memory
Do not make this harder than it already is
It is time to move on
Move on…
