I’m writing this letter to you
then throwing it away for me.
It’s not about your version of truth
but ‘bout the things you don’t see.
Talking always ended in walls.
Those barriers so hard to break.
You gave me no other choice
but to breathe for my own mental sake.
My way, is all you say, that’s your only play.
All along, your only song, is driving me away.
I’m trying to capture the meaning
of all my emotions in chains.
You always were the root cause to me
that fed my heart those pains.
My way, is all you say, that’s your only play,
All along,
your only song,
is driving me away.

Be always safe,
Karen
In Spirit,
Bear
Honest, pure pain in this write, Michael...
Heartfelt, beautiful and yet sad.
"Driving Me Away" pulls at the heartstrings and yet it is an experience that at times we all may have experienced.
A wonderful write,
Gwendolyn
