Dear almost lover,
I think I know why we were never complete
Why for you,
I felt so deep
but it never could be true.
It never worked because
you didn't love you.
When two love they give their all.
But you were vacant
Perhaps that's the cause?
So this is my letter to you
I'll tell you why I loved you.
You. were. so. bad.
The good kind of bad.
You carried yourself in a fearless manner.
I'm not sure if it was an act.
I was scared
and you would just do it
you never cared.
Yet, you cared so much
I liked it.
But you didn't show it enough.
So it kept me wanting more
you kept me guessing
what all of you was for.
Where your sensitivity stemmed from
Why you kept your empathy shunned?
But then there were those moments
you would give me some sort of
atonement.
You would open up, you would be fumin
It felt so human.
I don't know how to explain it all.
But for some reason I thought you were beautiful.
Or should I say handsome
because those looks. Dayum.
But I'm really talking about your soul.
Your soul saw everything,
I would run away but I'd be stuck
on its melody.
Your soul felt me
and made me feel myself.
But I guess it never really saw everything.
You needed just a little help
because you never saw you.
So you couldn't love me blind
But if I'm deaf
and wrong
Maybe have a melody
for a different song.
If you really saw the wonders of you
while our love wasn't true
Then I hurt and I feel better.
Because I'd rather you know
your wonders
than you be unaware
of your lighting
and only see your thunder.
So, simply you could've
just never loved me.
But I loved you.
and I hope you loved you too.
Yours truly,
No sincerely,
No, thats not the closing.
From me?
No.
Love,
me.
