ONLY ONE CHANCE

I don’t give second chances.
There is no taking back
good-bye.
So consider your next step
carefully
and be absolutely positive
that it is over between us
before
you utter those words
that are forming on your tongue
right now.
I’ve been through this
often enough,
and I know that once you say good-bye
I’ll not respond
if you happen to change your mind
somewhere
down the road.
So be certain before you
break my heart.
You’ll only get to do that once.
