"Last Reflection"

The realization burns...

That I am suddenly found in one of those moments

There are no chances of the mind forgetting

Or letting it pass by...

Its here and now

One must push through it in order to get to the other side

From one thing to the next

A connection made...

Now lost...

You have taken from me more than I was willing to give

I am withdrawing my support...

And my presence

The caring embrace that once held so tight

Releases the bond

Time is this

Making the many moments passed already lost

For I refuse to be held hostage by your past

Nor will I continue to negotiate with your insecurities

Compromise is great, especially when you have to sacrifice nothing

I am done with the broken parts of you that you try to keep reflecting in me

So perhaps, if you do not listen to my words of reason...

Then maybe you will hear my silence.
