So let me get this straight;
there was one point during whatever this is,
that I was kind of important to you.
I did matter, you did care,
that, at the very least, is the truth.

But what happened after that,
to make me so easy to replace,
to ignore, to put out of your mind?
Was I only a momentary thought for your pleasure,
a nice way to past the time?

Don't tell me you thought I moved on first,
just because I'm close to other men.
Because from what I heard
you aren't lonely either,
and the women you're with
are far from just "friends".

It would be nice to know for sure,
that you think of me, every now and again,
because lord knows I can't keep you off of my brain.
I just have to find out if you were worth all the sleepless nights,
or were my feelings for you just in vain.

How do I tell you how much I want you in my life,
without it sounding desperate to say?

And how do I add that I miss having you around,
without giving too much away?

How could I possibly let you into my heart,
when I'm still afraid of what you'll find?

How long are you willing to be patient with me,
or am I starting to run out of time?

How are we going to get past all of these problems;
the obstacles just never seem to stop.

How do we know this is worth all the trouble,
and how do we know that it's not?
