“It’s the hardest thing I’ll ever have to do, <br /> To look deeply into your eyes, <br /> And tell you I don’t love you.” <br /> <br />It’s the hardest thing I’ll ever have to do, <br />To never return your calls, <br />Pretending you don’t exist. <br /> <br />It’s the hardest thing I’ll ever have to do, <br />To turn around and walk away, <br />Like I’ll never care about you. <br /> <br />It’s the hardest thing I’ll ever have to do, <br />To show no emotion, <br />When you start to cry. <br /> <br />It’s the hardest thing I’ll ever have to do, <br />To stare at your shadow, <br />While you start to leave me. <br /> <br />It’s the hardest thing I’ll ever have to do, <br />To take the path of a fool, <br />But I guess it’s the best way… <br /> <br />It’s the hardest thing I’ll ever have to do, <br />Not telling you what you mean to me, <br />If only you could see… <br /> <br />That my hands are tied, <br />I cannot flee, <br />When my heart’s not free, <br />We’re not meant to be…<br /><br />the poet<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-hardest-thing-i-ll-ever-have-to-do/
