Further Away

With each day I think

of you less and less

 

My independence doesn't

come without a cost

 

That cost was of course, you

 

I didn't pay it willingly

I went kicking and screaming

 

Pushing the boundaries, hoping

you would change your mind

 

Knowing it wasn't going to happen

but, still you know I had to try

 

The attachment was probably unhealthy

but when you get into the walls

 

It comes naturally as if we were friends

and not patient and counsel

 

I would not trade it for the world

and yet, with each day I still move

 

Further away.
