III

Tonight you'll be a bit distant;
more than I'd like you to be.
Tomorrow you'll be farther away
because I'm setting you free.


Tonight I'm going to watch you leave
before I change my mind.
Tonight I'm going to let you be
because, letting go of you is the best,
I believe.


Walk away from me not just for now,
but for all the tomorrows and days after,
please.
For you've been nothing more to me 
than lingering thoughts and a God-awesome
tease.
