Pushed Away

"I'm not good enough
for you" he said.
With tears in his eyes.
"you put to much pressure on me,
I need to live my life."

How horrible I felt,
So scared and small.
I loved him for him.
I felt so stupid and alone.

"I'm giving up now,
please try to understand"
"I loved you once but
Never again."
I wanted to cry
But tears wouldn't help.

"Please don't leave me" I said.
Falling to my knees,
"I'm sorry for my mistake,
I'm sorry for everything!"

As the noise slowly died
Silence sipped in.
I could hear his foot steps,
Gently walk away.
"He's gone.." I said,
I pushed him away.
