Now that I got it,
what am I going to do about it?
I can't tell him I would drop everything for him
That if I could make all of his pain go away in his whole life, I would do anything
That even if his happiness doesn't see me in the picture I want it for him
That he could stop talking to me for days and days and I would still be there at his beck and call when he decided to reach out
So I retract and I smile when he reaches out and I laugh when we chat and I shy away when we are together
But my heart yearns for his.
