Looking Back I Knew There Was No Way Back To Loving You Poem by claire delap

Looking back now I knew there was no way back to loving you
I could see it in your eyes
You put my love on a rack and now there ain't no going back
You had grown so dark and cold
Your heart it was like ice
And suddenly life wasn’t what I thought it was meant to be
And now I have had to be free

Baby you gave me that loving feeling
That I had needed for so long
And now the hands of time have changed and
I must do it on my own

I know we will never grow old together
From your distance you made that quite clear
That time together when you were sweet
Turned to cold and ice as a lay at your feet
But time is a healer a teller of souls
No more heartbreak no more of your own goals
I knew I could do it here on my own
And im here to say there aint no more lookin back babe
