Walk Away

Walk Away

By Shannon Moriarity
Benson Village School, Grade 8

I don’t care what they say,
I’m in love with you.
They tell me to walk away
But it’s all too hard
(I can’t…)

You leave me here,
Alone and cold.
You don’t take me in your arms
To protect me from the cold,
But something makes me come back.

I don’t care what they say,
I’m in love with you.
They tell me to walk away,
But it’s all too hard,
(I can’t…)

Tears fall down my cheeks,
Yet you don’t wipe them away.
I can’t stay like this forever,
The pain is too much,
But somehow I still love you.

I don’t care what they say,
I’m in love with you.
They tell me to walk away,
But it’s all too hard.
(I can’t…)

This drowning feeling,
I can’t breathe.
Come save me.
Where are you?
I need you.

I don’t care what they say,
I’m in love with you,
But it’s time for me to walk away
And don’t look back.
Goodbye, my love.
