I knew deeply

Inner gut

The first, and last time, I will ever see who you truly are

Is the time I must say goodbye

When I first saw, you I knew, you weren’t the one for me for some reason I was curious

I had to find out more

The more time, I spent with you

the more I thought, I was falling, in love with you

I felt, a connection that I never felt before

Maybe, I just wanted so deeply, that love that feeling, again

So, I was blinded, by the controlling behaviors and fear of commitment from you

I kept going towards you at the same time after we’d get intimate I would push you away

That had to be a sign,

I kept ignoring

telling me he’s not right for you

Until today I finally realized

I need to go with my gut

Always go with your gut

Now that I know,

I feel free and alive

Instead, of hurt and dead inside

Thank you, inner gut

For being always with me

To protect me

To know

I made the right decision

Even if it hurts, to know the truth

It’s so much better then what the final out come may have been

If I did not listen

To my inner gut
