It was Long Ago....And It Will Always Be
Part 2
She got her bags and books and things,
and tried to run away as fast as she could,
he desperately kept tugging at her strings
even though he kept saying he understood.
He never hurt her with violence or a word,
but rather an addiction took him over,
but she loved him regardless of this curse
but could no longer be his out or his cover.
She longed for him even after she left,
for he was just a simple yet messed up man,
but she new her heart would always be bereft
and she so missed the touch of his hand.
He haunts her now, even to this day,
about their lives and what could have been,
sometimes, again, she wants to run away,
to find him and nuzzle, again, against his chin.
But she knows it can never be,
it was long ago and it is done,
she has to accept that she is free
and hope they both never, again, have to run.
