"I Want you to Leave me Alone."

Written by Kester Henrick

It finally happened.
A heartfelt discussion leading to my worn out self asking:
"What more do you want from me?"
and you answered.
For once your voice rang through with honest malice and time abruptly stopped
and I just stared as that response lingered in my head, trapped, looking for an exit.
And all I could do was stare blankly into an abyss of painfull honosty.
In return, I left, because its what you wanted me to do
and the only thing I ever wanted was for you to be happy.
I drove my heart home that night, wearing nothing but shards of glass and a love I once thought would never treat me like this
and I walked through the front door alone for the first time in weeks.
