Each time I stop

Each time I stop

The mind goes back to you.

Every moment of this phase

I strive hard to move on

But each time I stop

The mind goes back to you.

I’ve learnt to trust actions over words

So though you say you care

Your actions say otherwise

So it’s high time I walk out

But each time I stop

The mind goes back to you.

I gave it all I had

Perhaps more than you deserved

To make you realize how ideal

It would be for you and I to be we.

Now each time I stop

The mind goes back to it all.

You showed me in return

That it is ideal for me to turn

And walk out in dignity

And here I am striving to hold my head high

But each time I stop

The mind goes back to you.

But I notice every day

I love you a little less than yesterday

The love I gave you will always come back

But I wonder if you’ll ever have the same.

And one day when I stop

The mind will never even recall you.
