I hear that insistent voice

Telling me to end this

It sounds incredibly convincing

I think of the wonderful times

The smiles and the laughter

Then that feeling of abandon

Things haven't truly progressed

He says how much he loves me

I want to hold back

I try to channel the warm and fuzzy

The crippling loneliness is what wins

I want to go on

Forgetting the empty side

Those nights of solitude

Perhaps I will become accustomed to

His actions

My folly to use the intimacy defense

No longer the girl blinded by love

Could be selfish asking for more

Not material but soulful

This can't be right

Soon a resolution

I must stay

But I can't give my everything
