The time finally came
when I needed to look away,
no longer captured
by your fertile garden.
Took my leave,
and I,
was never satisfied
with you,
or any other.
Couldn’t even satisfy myself.
Spent my whole life
reaching out to someone else.
Now,
I can’t tell
if this is the end,
or the beginning,
but every day
I think
it’s more likely the end.
Some say,
we’re gonna get what we deserve,
someday,
and I can’t say they’re wrong.
But,
I can’t say they’re right, either.
The day has finally come
for me
to make up my mind.
