I've never been selfish
Until I met you
You were mine
And I wanted you to be all mine
And when you left
All I could think about
Was how I felt
How I...
Me
Everything was about me
But now
I can honestly
Step back and look at the whole picture
And it's getting clearer
Took long enough
But it's not such a fuzzy blur anymore
And I've learned to accept that you are not mine anymore
And that you have a whole other life now
And I've learned to be happy for you
And I see now that I can't be selfish
I was the one ruining the process
I was getting in my own way
But I see it now
I see what you were trying to do
I see you with her
And I'm not mad
I don't feel anything
I'm just happy that you're happy
And I'm glad I finally found you in person to talk
I feel like we ended on a good note
No grudges
And I can honestly say
I feel better
I mean
We all get selfish
But you eventually have to open your eyes and see the full picture
What's better for everyone
It's hard
You get all caught up in how you feel because its right there in front of you
You're witnessing your own emotion right when they happen
You can't feel other people's emotions
So that thought comes second
And I'm sorry I made it so ******* you
I really am
I understand everything now
And if I could go back
I'd make it easier on you
I would
I'd try really hard not to be selfish
But lesson learned
And hopefully I can use my knowledge in the future
What's knowledge if you don't use it?
