you said i love you

by lost - Cancer

last night i heard you whisper in my ear when you thought i was asleep,
you said i love you and it made me want to hold you forever and weep,
your warm breath danced over my neck as you finished your words,
and it was then i realised how much it was that i would be hurt,

you asked me to come but then you said you could be leaving in a month,
and as much as i know i need you i dont know if it can be done,
leaving my family and friends and relying on you for all my support,
or i could just stay here without you and want to die once more,

i know the choice i make is going to be the one that isnt right,
but i have to let you go even though i feel you were meant to be mine,
because i am too weak to take the risk of everything that i have,
to run away and start a whole new life with a whole new man.

Reason for writing:

    he asked me to leave with him but i am too scared to so i have to let my love for him go. please comment
