I realized something today
As I am stuck in the same place
As you are far away
I've let you control me
Even when you aren't in my life
You've dictated my happiness
For much too long
I was in love
With everything about you
For so long I've made myself believe
I still loved you
And yes darling it's true
I am still in love
But not with you
I'm in love with who you used to be
I'm in love with the way you once made me feel
I'm in love with the beautiful memories
But that's the thing
I'm only in love with who you were
And all you once meant to me
I don't know who you are now
So how could I possibly be
Still in love with you
When you are now a stranger
I don't miss you
I miss who you were
I miss being in love
I only miss the moments I have lost
So yes I admit
I will always be in love
I will always miss you
But not the way you think
