Time For You To Go

Once, this was the only dream
 the inseparable bond of you to me agleam,
 the love and passion forever entwined
 the babe in arms divine
but soon enough, came the burden and responsibility
 one babe became two then three
and after all this time, you see things differently
 deciding you have no need of me.

A younger lass catches your roving eye,
 listens to your ramblings hanging on the fly
 performs your every wish and desire
 flames your soul and body with hotter fires,
and these children of our mutual  flesh and bone
 are mere pawns that threaten your new throne
and you argue and at last confess, 
 she is your desire with who you are obsessed.

It's not me, it's you - you say
 and make your time in this game you play,
 have your fling and all it's fun
 you'll never see me on the run
Where did it all go wrong
 that love that we shared once so strong?
All those wasted hours as our love sour,
 how well I know, it's time for you to go.
