Admitting Defeat

I never thought you’d make me cry

Until the night you asked

You asked me if there was anyone who could possibly see you

See you the way I’ve seen you for so long

My heart is aching

I want to shout

I feel defeated

Defeated because you can’t see!

See what I thought was so apparent

So I'll sit here and cry myself to sleep tonight

And admit the defeat that I never thought I would

I literally just wrote this. I'll probably come back and tweak this later but right now I just wanted to post it. I've never felt more defeated than I do now. Commentary welcome. Thanks
