I'm hurting I don't show it-I smile sunshines at you I laugh but inside I'm hurting so bad I look at your smiling face, hear your laughter, I smell your scent and imagine her doing the same and I'm hurting I hear your promises, your I love you's, your forevers and I'm hurting I know that once you looked at her the same way you look at me, that the things you do with me and the way you kiss me and by God I'm hurting Knowing you've discovered the unknown with her, that your writings and knowledge is from her, that at one point you gave her your heart so easily, that I'm just second I'm hurting that one day you can let go of me as easily as you let go of her, that one day you'll want to run back to her because she's given you more than I ever could My insides being ripped apart, my throat shut, my eyes pouring I'm hurting Because second place still doesn't win And that how I know I love you, although now I'm not even sure what love is
The risks we take in life are sometimes made without second thought. Although sometimes we don't know how far we have fallen because once we look up we've already hit rock bottom. And that's love
