I'm stuck.

I want to be your partner.
The kind of partner that calms you when you're sad
And further cheers you when you're already happy.

I want to be your life.
I want to be the reason you wake up.
Something that makes you happy.

I want to be your friend, too.
You were my best friend. I naturally open up to you.
But I'm afraid too, and I'm hurt too, and well, you weren't very mindful of my feelings...

I want to be your desire again.
I know you needed someone, and...well,
I know she treats you well. I know you're happy with her. But I really do feel replaced...

I want to be your comfort.
I try my best. I'll never stop trying.
But I can't ignore my feelings...

I wanted to go slow too...
To start, just be friends...
But you turned on me. You lost all your respect for me...when I needed you most.

It hurts to see you with someone else.
Please, put yourself in my shoes...
I don't hate you for what you've done...I just wish you hadn't.
I love you...
