switch

i've been hurting trying to get you back,
knowing each time i cry, its like a heart attack,
my heart didn't want to take it, my brain wanted deny it,
but i was persistent and didn't quit,

so i tried and tried,
and got denied and cried,
it took days of sadness and tears,
scared to let you go and all my fears,

but then i made a mental note,
and my mind switched and made an oath,
that we would remain friends,
and to save my heart i wouldnt bend,

it switched on to off just like that,
if only i could of saved some pain and bring time back,
but my pain came to and end,
and ive gained a friend.
