If I loved him If I loved him I would not cry the night away, I would not hopelessly float in my tears. If I loved him there would be a smile on my face, I would not have to worry about being enough, But that is only if I loved him. For I know I cannot do so, My struggles are that of his For I know that he depends on me My struggles are too overwhelming for him Yet I still cannot love him If I loved him I would bring him down He deserves more than I can provide If I loved him we would return to the darkness together He deserves more than a relationship based off of a confused lie I want to love him I chose to love someone else I told myself I would be better off I chose to love the second who gave me what I thought I wanted I told myself that I need someone who doesn’t care for my heart Now I wish I loved him

To the Boy I Could Not Love
If I loved him If I loved him I would not cry the night away, I would not hopelessly float in my tears. If I loved him there would be a smile on my face, I would not have to worry about being enough, But that is only if I loved him. For I know I cannot do so, My struggles are that of his For I know that he depends on me My struggles are too overwhelming for him Yet I still cannot love him If I loved him I would bring him down He deserves more than I can provide If I loved him we would return to the darkness together He deserves more than a relationship based off of a confused lie I want to love him I chose to love someone else I told myself I would be better off I chose to love the second who gave me what I thought I wanted I told myself that I need someone who doesn’t care for my heart Now I wish I loved him
