I Can't Save You Anymore

 

stillframes speak to me from the past

the leftovers of your “what-ifs”

they stab me in the heart like icicles

falling hard for falling apart

and I can’t save you anymore.

 

I can hear my memory in your laughter

nearly obscured by broken promises and your new ideals.

we’ve been drifting apart like petals on the last dandelion of last year

because my best wasn’t good enough

and I can’t save you anymore.

 

but you can keep my baggage

when this journey is over.

and please forgive me, 

for I’ve walked upon the road of ever-after without your company.

but I can’t save you anymore.

Wow what an ending...

and please forgive me,
for I've walked upon the road of ever-after without your company.
but I can't save you anymore.

one sided relationship never work... you certainly pulled no punches here... raw emotions vented in pure poetic form... nice work.
