One day if he keeps this up he'll reach for her in the night, <br />Only to find a pillow, bearing her sweet scent. <br />Has his actions reached the point <br />That her love for him isn't meant? <br /> <br />If this happens his thoughts continue to race on, <br />Knowing nights with her next to him won't come again. <br />Will she find forgiveness in her heart <br />Or, has her love come to an end? <br /> <br />Is he really an anchor that weighed her down, <br />From which she had to flee? <br />Or, did she say that out of pain, <br />Because she didn't want to be the one hurt again? <br /> <br />Does she really feel no emotional ties to him, <br />Where did love fit before? <br />Was it really love or, something else <br />That she no longer feels anymore? <br /> <br />Are those feelings gone and turned to stone, <br />As her words written on the page, <br />Will they work it out and find a way <br />To see each other through this time of age? <br /> <br />Back to reality she's at a loss, <br />His silence what will it cost, what has his actions done. <br />She thinks she doesn't need him or anyone <br />How when she approached him can he act like he doesn't care?<br /><br />Coreena Dejesus<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/03-17-2008-leave-the-one-you-love/
