What are we? Are we just friends? Are we a couple? Are we more than friends but less than together?

I know what you are to me, but what am I to you? Am I just a summer crush? Am I just someone used to get over an ex?
Was that my only purpose; to keep you happy and distract you until you could move on? If that was my purpose... Did I at least serve it well?

Is this goodbye? But we barely said hello. It seems this is ending, without even having a chance at a beginning. What am I supposed to do now? Please tell me, let me know.

When together the sun shines brighter. When apart night couldn't be darker. You make me smile in ways I never knew possible. You helped me to find a happiness I've never known.

And now that we're apart it's all gone. The happiness, the joy, the warm feeling of you by my side. You never leave my thoughts. I can't sleep at night without you, how pitiful this sounds.

Its like you're a drug that gives me such a high and leaves me wanting more. Yet, when I can't see you, can't hear you I feel withdrawal in its purest form.

I just wanted you to be happy. And if without me that's what you are, then I have served my purpose. All I need is an answer. To know I've done right.

To know whether you and I will ever be, or if we were just a dream. For dreams are quite wonderful, but a morning will always come to end even the sweetest.
