A Final Song Poem by Evelyn Nec

Walking away is the only choice
from a love we thought we had
to an illusion that had taken form
This is my song to you
a painful melody
but one I'm willing to sing

Now we can walk away in peace
a decision we both agreed
before it rains on our happy parade
A fantasy is all we had
It made us strangers
to the people we used to be
our friends looked away in shame

Now as we walk along separate paths
we regret not what we had
Friend-zoned is what remains
a lie we are telling ourselves
It will hurt a lot more
if we even come inches close
knowing we can't kiss...
or touch
Winds will sweep dust over our hearts
and eventually forget this which we had
to heal the emptiness inside
This is my final song to you.
