This Love

This Love
by Khari D. Hawke



On This day you told me I should be leaving 
Even though a week ago my Grandmother passed 
And Im still bereving 
Throughout this relationship you were my motivation 
My only source of elevation 

I gave you all my love and got you a job 
Without a thank you 
Nor a head nod 

you were the only person I thought I'd ever love 
Next to you only GOD was above 

Me being in love with you I thought was all gravy 
Untill today when things are all hazy 

I loved you with all my heart 
this you have knwn from the start 
But today I see its our time to part 

I got my things to leave 
Ooops! 
Forgot. 
Here are your keys 

Guess I'll move back home 
A damn shame 
I thought I was grown 

Now Im all alone 
No soul has to worry 
Not even my friends that call me on my phone 

I cant stand it 
Being trated like shit 
By my own family 

I wanna get outta here 
And get my own 
Then Im sure I will be grown 

Since I have no one else 
I guess I'll be by myself 
for a while 

This will be a challenge 
But Im sure I will manage 

I know you dont care 
You look at me and see what 
AIR... 

I used to be frustrated 
I was even mad 
I've been sad 
But now I'm so Glad... 
Glad to have had this experience 

I couldn't be with anyone since 
You... 
And... 

I'm getting over you 
But there is this one part I cant shake loose 
The love I have for you is just so true 

I try to play it off, nonchalantly 
But the inner me hopes that you still want me 

I loved you with all of my heart 
This you have known from the start 

Loving you has been like a wart 
Dont really know how it got there 
But once its gone 
You realize it will forever hold a place in your heart 

I have no regrets 
And I will never forget 
This time... 
This love... 

May have been as good as it gets.
