You want me to believe

All that you believe

I’m sorry but I can’t

If

Perhaps

You changed

Your expectations

Lowered your standards

To a level I could reach

Didn’t ask

The impossible

Or expect so much of me

Maybe

I could concede

To try

And understand

Why you believe the way you do

But as it stands

You ignore my plea

Demand I sacrifice

All that I believe

For the sake of you

And your ideals

So

I’m sorry

To see you go

And just for a moment

I see the impossible become possible

And then it’s gone

Along with you
