I understand your reasons for your departure
Its as simple as the reasons for your stay
Yet you chose the first, for a hopeful change
Yes a change that choice has made
I no longer see your smile in broken daylight
No longer smell your scent when you head for bedtime
I wonder if you miss my presence as I have missed yours
And if not, than what a shame, I waste such time in you
I understand your reasons for your departure,
Such strong were these reasons, that I was not enough for you to stay
I have become a burden on your lifes' happiness
I hope your choice has made you smile
I have made me smile before, several times
Now I question if those smiles, behind them held cruel lies
I have always told you that I loved you with no doubt in me
You replied, me too-and I naively believed it.
I believed I was your prized possession,
Your first born and first joy
Now these beliefs seem vain and stupid-
I am now just any other person
Perhaps being your first born cannot bring the joy I dreamed
But maybe your first dead can bring this joy Ive weaved

Very touching. We all have to leave one day right? It's not really our choice, it's more like our fate, noone can prolong his stay.
