Only Me

By: Chelsea Gibson

I wanted to be the only one
when better came to worse
To comfort and love you
when you were sad- I wanted to be the first
No one else but me,
I wanted you all for my own
To have you for myself was an unmet desire,
if only I could have known

I wanted to be the only one
to hold your hand in mine
To give you love as well as take
but there wasn't any to find
I thought you loved me back, of course,
but that thought was mistaken
To who else would your heart have gone,
who else's heart have you taken?

I wanted to be the only one
you cared so deeply for
But you were 'hers' as well as mine
but only she... was yours
