Part of Me

Part of Me

A Poem by Jason Ahlers
"

Wrote this as a song, after coming to a fork in the road.

"

I miss the way let me hold you close

every now and then.
I miss the way you looked at me

as you forced yourself to smile.
I wish things were back again,

back to the way they used to be.
I wish that I could walk with you,

and that you stayed with me all the while.

But I know, there's a
Part of me that
knows that it's alright
Now I know that
it's not me
You're thinking of at night

I miss always being at your side,

to hold your hand.
I hate myself because I took away

your undiscovered youth.
I love you for the memories we share,

the times we've laughed together.
But I can't forgive the lie we lived,

if you had only told the truth!

But I know, There's a
part of me that still
wants you in my life.
And I know that
You don't want it and it
Cuts me like a knife.

Part of me wants to let go
Part of me won't let my feelings show
Part of me wants to cry all night
Part of me doesn't want to put up a fight
Part of me hopes you're happy
Part of me hopes that you can't sleep at night
Part of me wants to die, inside
But part of me just wants to say "Goodbye"
...Goodbye...
