I'm leaving now

I enjoyed the warm hugs you gave me
The hope you restored in me
I thank you for the ideas you gave me
The motivation you gave me
I enjoyed the passionate kisses
The love stories you shared with me

I enjoyed your company
And everything we did inbetween
But I'm leaving now
It's not because of your bright dreams
Or your hard work

It's not because of our long midnight calls
It's not because of the crazy funny messages we shared together
Or the jackets you gave me when I was feeling cold

It's not because of everything you ever done for me and my appreciation for you
It's not because of the love I have for you
Or the home you have in my heart

It's not because of the love we embraced together or the plans we made together
It's the truth that I have to face
That maybe I'm not the one for you
So I'm leaving now
