‏It wasn’t a huge ask,
‏Was it?
‏I begged for your love, I cried in despair,
‏You only watched, like you didn’t care.
‏Even if you weren’t the one to blame,
‏I loved you more than words could name.

‏I tried to keep you safe and warm,
‏Even when I braved the storm.
‏I wanted to paint your world so bright,
‏While drowning alone in endless night.
‏I could barely stand, yet took your hand,
‏Helped you walk, helped you withstand.

‏That’s the hardest part to say—
‏You understood my pain each day.
‏I did my best, I gave my all,
‏I swore to love you through each fall.

‏And then you said I was the one,
‏Your special star, your setting sun.
‏I thought, at last, I’ve found my place,
‏In your warm arms, in your embrace.

‏We had no walls, we had no chains,
‏We had no fear, we felt no pains.
‏We were perfect, we were whole,
‏But something dark consumed it all.

‏I don’t know how it felt for you,
‏But for me, it cut right through.
‏You broke me when I tried to heal,
‏Made my love seem so unreal.

‏It doesn’t matter anymore,
‏I’ll forget, just like before.
‏But sometimes pain still fills my chest,
‏Sometimes my tears just won’t rest.
‏I miss you when I hear a song,
‏When movies play, when nights feel long.
‏I carry love that has no place,
‏A hollow heart, a lost embrace.

‏My shoulders shake beneath this weight,
‏A love too pure, a twisted fate.
‏Last night, I saw you in my dream,
‏Just before the sunlight gleamed.
‏You stood alone, I ran, I flew,
‏Like all the past had been untrue.

‏No path of pain, no trail of scars,
‏No aching heart, no broken stars.
‏I held you close, refused to part,
‏Afraid to lose my shattered heart.

‏I cried and told you, loud and clear,
‏How much I missed you, wished you near.
‏How lost I felt, how much it stung,
‏The way you left when love was young.

‏I loved you more than I should dare,
‏The way I wished someone would care.

‏Then I woke up—
‏Tears still fell,
‏You were gone,
‏And I was hell.

‏I just want to say, I miss it all,
‏The rise, the fall, the silent call.
‏But love like ours is laced with fire,
‏A cruel, untamed, and wild desire.

‏Maybe someday, in some new life,
‏I’ll hold you close, without the strife.
‏Tell you then, what now feels wrong,
‏And never fear, you won’t be gone.

‏Because you’ll be there,
‏And you’ll be mine.
