Go Away a Little Closer
GO AWAY A LITTLE CLOSER
First it’s yes and then it’s no.
I want you here. I’ve got to go.
She lures me in, then kicks me out.
Love rushes forth, then in walks doubt.
She sings of love that never falters.
But then her tune, it quickly alters.
She makes me crazy, her ebb and flow.
I’m caught up in her undertow.
She’s sure it’s love. She deeply plunges.
Then towards the shore, she quickly lunges.
Her waves of passion, they’re so alive.
But her tides of gloom, I can’t survive.
Go away a little closer.
Come here.
Go away.
Go away a little closer.
You’ve got to leave.
No… stay.
Back and forth, her heart does swing.
She knows it’s love. No, it’s just a fling.
She vows to me, she wants no other.
But then next week, I meet her lover.
She’s sucked me in - a perpetual bind.
What do I see? Have I lost my mind?
I’ve had enough, her to and fro.
“Should I stay or should I go?”
She makes her choice - I’ll set you free.
But just in case, please keep my key…
For the perfect love, she’d rather wait.
But until then, perhaps… just date?
Go away a little closer.
Come here.
Go away.
Go away a little closer.
I’ve got to leave.
Today.
Well, with mixed emotions, she may bout.
But I’ve had my fill. I must get out.
Her seductive net, it’s come unraveled.
This back and forth is overtraveled.
I pack my bags. I leave my keys.
I’ve seen the light. I won’t be teased.
I’ve healed my heart. I’ve found my mind.
Her temptress ways, I’ve left behind.
But then one day she’s on the phone.
She cannot bear to be alone.
But I won’t be swayed, she cannot woo.
So with these words, I’ll let her stew…
Oh man. This is perfect. Have we all experienced this or what? Mine has always been with straight women though. Thanks for this great write with a strong, empowered ending! _________________ Listen for heart's song.

saensun,
This is just like the relationship I just ended. I'm so glad I'm not alone. I hope I'll find your words when she calls me on the phone. I love the title by the way. It begged me to read.

Lady,
Thanks so much. This write was a truly cathartic experience. I felt as if it gave me some much needed closure - kind of the last of a slow healing process. Glad yo enjoyed
