Crashing Over Me Poem by graham russell

waves of emotion crash over me
saddness, guilt, shame
but i have no choice but
to let them as i walk away

i know ive hurt her
i know she cries
i know her heart breaks
but i have no choice

the pain i saw in her eyes
the flicker of hope as it died
as i packed my things together
but i have no choice

i fell in love with someone else
i didn, t mean to, it was just there
told her how i felt, she felt the same
told she i use to love of my shame
but i had no choice

left one night.as she said dont go
i paused for just a moment
as i walked out the door
to a new love i do go

no choice i have
when one love dies
and another takes it
place

feeling those emotions
crashing over me.
