Unrequited
It's time I let go, but before I say good-bye,
Please give me a moment to explain the reasons why.
I've tried for some time now to win your heart,
Two months time, as of late, though we've been apart.
Mainly because I miss us, and the way we were,
I remember the beginning... before there was 'her.'
Before you say anything, I'm not denying my faults.
I know that I am the one who took the first walk.
But my love for you scared me, as I've told you before.
I wanted you to stop me, but you said nothing, as I neared the door.
But it happened, and I'm sorry, what else can I say?
What else can I do, to prove I'm not the same way?
I'll never let you go, if you'll have me again.
I'll never leave your side and come back as your friend.
I know I've done my best to prove this to you,
And it's come to the point when there's nothing left to do.
But I'm not the only one who has made a mistake.
As you recall, only my heart suffered and ached.
But that's repetitive, I've said this all before.
My heart is tired and can't deal anymore.
I fear I've become one of those people I hate,
Numb to all others, but for that one love they'll wait.
Now I must apply to myself the advice I've given, and recall...
"Has it ever occurred to you, he never cared for you at all?"
"That while you were loving him, he was in love with someone else.
You need to let go, move on, and get hold of yourself."
But now, from this view, I know it's easier said than done.
How difficult it is to move on, when you know that he's the one.
But I'm not the one for him, he doesn't love me, I've always known
He doesn't have to say it... it was never shown.
