Sacrifices Would Have To Be Made

                                                   

She didn't want him to go away 

Forever

Just for a few months, or maybe a year

Just long enough so the desire 

She once felt for him

Could return

'cause she knew it would return

 It always did

Just as the feeling that she wanted him to be gone 

Would

She wished she could find a way to explain

That it wasn't his fault 

It was nothing he did

She had not met someone 

Better than him

She hadn't found someone

 Who was more attractive

Or funnier

Or sexier

Or more dependable

She just had gotten to the point where she knew

They had to be apart for awhile 

And she had no idea why

She just knew that being apart was the only way 

They would have a chance 

Of staying together

For the long haul
