I think I'm going to change the song title to Retreat.
The genre I would imagine this to be would be indie/folk... something similar to Ingrid Michaelson or the Avett Brothers.
Retreat
V1
This goodbye feels unfamiliar
A sense of early defeat
This silence begs the question
Will you miss me?
V2
Cast aside self righteous intentions
I crave a dose of honesty
The wall you've put up may push me away
But, I fear I won't go quietly
Chorus
So... here's to hoping you'll trust me with your heart
Here's to unanswered questions
Here's to praying we won't fall apart
Sealed with a kiss
V3
The truth of the matter: I find this exhausting
What good can stubborn distance bring?
Sadness has settled behind your brown eyes
Let's brighten them together
V4
I'm not the type to place a bet
Fate has yet to earn my trust
But I would bet on you, my darling
I would bet on us
Chorus
So... here's to hoping you'll trust me with your heart
Here's to unanswered questions
Here's to praying we won't fall apart
Sealed with a kiss
Outro
Less of a warning and more of a plea
This is my final farewell before my final retreat

Yeah! Definitely "something worth pursuing"! I can't quite peg a style (genre) or cadence for this, but if you know where it's going musically, that's what counts. You've got ability with words and shaping verses. Go for it!
There is no glamour in sudden death, and nobody ever wins a war.

Thank you! I was hoping it would be in the indie/folk genre... something along the lines of Ingrid Michaelson or Avett Brothers. Haven't fully decided yet. Anyway, thanks for your feedback
