Attack of Blue

Attack of Blue

You have to go,
I know this; restart,
You need to grow,
Find out who you are.
But I'm selfish, don't want you to leave.
Wherever you go is is too far.

You're standing there,
As life continues,
Your bags are packed;
All I see, is you.
Please don't go, leave me feeling like this,
Having a heart attack of blue.

Then it is time,
You're ready for this.
A last embrace,
With one final kiss,
You tell me you'll love me forever,
And I'm braced for all that I'll miss.

So walk away,
I know you have to.
But don't look back,
Because if you do,
I'll see the pain in those pretty eyes,
And have a heart attack of blue.
