It Killed Her But She Said It

He said he didn't want her,
after all this time.
He said he's only human,
and humans change their minds.
"maybe later on" he said,
in attempt to slow her pain,
and she said "you're out of chances"
as the tears fell down like rain.
"just friends" was his suggestion,
as if she meant nothing now;
and she wanted to be there for him,
she just couldn't figure how.
"you really can't be there for me?
I thought you loved me so."
And it killed her, but she said it
"I'd love to let you go."
