Severing Ties

I met her on a barstool

We didn't have much to say

Yet saw it in the eyes

She haunts me 'til this day

Once I fell in love and I didn't know why

I did all I could do just to sever those ties

I said "Go"

She asked "Why?"

Couldn't find an answer

Left her empty inside

I offered disappointment

She always had me back

One too times too many

I understand regret

In a vicious cycle

pulling back to push away

I gave up what I wanted

In the end was her to stay

I said "No"

She said "Bye"

Now the tables turned and she's severing ties
