GSR: Leave the Pieces

You're not sure that you love me, but you're not sure enough to let me go. Baby it ain't fair to just keep me hangin' round. You say you don't want to hurt me, don't want to see my tears, so why are you still standin' there just watchin' me drown.

She thought he loved her, but if he really loved her, why was he hurting her so much? Why would he leave like this, and push her away the way he did? In her mind she knew why, but her heart didn't want to believe it. When he saw her that night, everything seemed to change.

Yeah I'm alright I'm just fine, don't worry 'bout this heart of mine. Just take your love and hit the road. There's nothing you can do or say, you're gonna break my heart anyway, so just leave the pieces when you go.

She knew that he didn't love her as much as wanted to her to think. She was too smart for that. Why he thought he could fool her was beyond either of them. He had loved her, but now…he wasn't so sure.

"Grissom?" she asked from the doorway.

"Yeah?"

"I need to know. You need to tell me. I can't just wait forever. I'm sorry."

You can drag out the heartache, or baby you can make it quick, really get it over with and just let me move on. Don't concern yourself with this mess you left for me, I can clean it up you see just as long as you're gone.

"No, I'm sorry. I won't lie. I've drawn it out too long, when I should've told you in the beginning. I can't love you like you want me too."

"Alright," she said. She turned and left quietly. She didn't know what to do, where to go. But she knew, deep in her heart, that it was over.

Yeah it's alright, I'll be fine, don't worry 'bout this heart of mine, just take your love and hit the road. There's nothing you can do or say you're gonna break my heart anyway. Just leave the pieces when you go.

He was at her side a moment later.

"Sara, I don't want to hurt you, I just can't do this."

"I know. Don't worry about me, I'll be fine. Just, I need to go."

"No. Don't. Maybe we can…work it out?"

"What?"

"I don't want to let you go, Sara. I care too much about you."

You're not makin' up your mind, its killing me this waste of time. You mean so much more then that! Yeah it's alright, I'll be fine, don't worry 'bout this heart of mine, just take your love and hit the road. There's nothing you can do or say you're gonna break my heart anyway. Just leave the pieces when you go.

"No. You have to make up your mind. I'm going now, I don't know where, but I know that I can't stay here while you figure it out. Good bye, Gil." He watched as she walked off, tears in her eyes. He felt cold inside, he'd lost her, and there was nothing he could do about it.
