Don't Walk Away

By Mili Jain

I watch you walk away from me,
And the tears start to fall.
I ask myself a million times,
How did we lose it all?
For the first time I had no words
That to you I could say.
I cling to old memories
And I watch you walk away.
I just don't want to let you go,
But inside I know I must.
My heart's whimpering with pain,
But it's my mind I trust.
There's confusion around me,
There's numbness in my heart,
But looking at you walk away
My world just fell apart.
If only I could handle it
And bear to just say,
I'd use my breath and say the words:
Don't Walk Away!
