i can no longer be that other guy

I've been here before I know how this story ends..

Thought I knew what was best but this is where the glory ends..

I like what we have but only so long I pretend..

Before feelings turn real then they get hurt..

Ill take what we have for all that its worth..

Met as two strangers more in common then most..

I pray and I plead but I keep losing hope..

Ill write it in rhyme composed as a poem..

These feelings must hide I can no longer show them..

Memories we have Ill cherish and hold them..

For now I can't deal and it isn't my place..

Ill pick you up when your down, and wipe those tears from your face..

I wanted to be special, not a mistake..

I promise it's real so far from the fake..

Maybe it's timing or never was in the cards..

But our time was special because it was ours..

 

today i give it all up
