This is the Day

Whenever I'm near you
All I hope is that you’re true
Something so simple and yet complex
Led me to hope that our love was convex
And when I'm with you
All I want is to be near you
But I stay back-afraid
To hurt you today
Because soon you'll be gone
And I'll be all-alone
And when you are gone
I'll have to move on
And this will be the day that I cry
For this will be that day that I die on the inside
For when you walk away from here
I'll have to move on with no fear
I'll have to live with just myself
Even though you left with only myself
For there will come a day
When you will have to say
"What did I let go?"
And that is when you will know
So what are you going to say?
On that fateful day
When you see me standing alone
On the sidewalk by my home
When you stop to say 'hi'
And yet I just walk by
Because that is what you let go
Someone who you didn't know
You will see me standing there
And you will realized you've always cared
But somewhere inside of this small girl
My strength will brim and will boil
And I will be able to walk away
From all that I waited for that day
And that is the day you will cry
This is the day you will die on the inside
And you will watch me walk away
There and then and on that day
This will be when you apprehend
That I was all you wanted, now and then
And now that I'm gone you will fear
That the day you will die will soon be here
And you will have to understand

That this is the day our love will end
