Just because I can't help everybody, doesn't mean I can't help at least one person.

He wants to go.
He wants to leave.
You showed him everything.
You wore your heart on your sleeve.
He turns away.
Nd takes his first step.
A tear comes to your eye.
Now there's no turning back.
This is your last chance to make things right.
Gain up the courage, fight back the fright.
You have to do this.
No regretting this time.
If it doesn't work out, at least you know that you tried.
You reach for his arm.
He swirls back around.
His confusion is starting to tear you down.
You rethink your actions.
Is this what you want?
Its too late now. There's no putting up a front.
Look him dead in the eye.
Tell him how you feel.
Tell him there's no lies. This is for real..................

Long story short, I wanted him too know before he moved away.
