A restless fever <br />Burning like a torch in your eyes… <br />My aching heart can feel <br />The desperate need you try to hide.. <br />A part of you is longing <br />To be free from me, I know… <br />And even when my cries, <br />I come to realize: <br />That I love You <br />Just enough to let you go… <br /> <br />I can't stand to see <br />You searching for the words <br />To tell me gently, what went through… <br />If one of us must suffer, <br />It will give me <br />The satisfaction just to know, <br />That I was the one to ease your pain, <br />By saying what you want to hear: Bye! <br />I love you just enough, to let you go… <br />I love you just enough, to let you go… <br /> <br />Why should I go through the motion <br />Of pretending everything is fine, <br />Just holding off on letting you go <br />To satisfy myself until now? <br />I have been clinging to a hope <br />That is dying slowly… <br />I never came through my mind <br />That I was the one to say goodbye… <br />And this time forever! <br /> <br /> <br />COPY WRITE©2009<br /><br />Romeo Della Valle<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/i-love-you-just-enough/
