Slow and steady,
I let you go,
I pretend it'll be okay,
Because I love you.
You cured the doubts,
You healed the hurt,
You freed us.
But I still am trapped,
Chained to you,
To ensure you're happy,
To know he's caring for you.
It's torture,
It's torment,
To know,
You will never be mine truly.
But to be there as you go through life,
That is worth the pain.
You belong with the cat,
Not the foolish rabbit,
So he is just the close friend.
Slowly and steady,
I smile,
I let you go.
