I... I dearly miss you Not because loving you brings me to life Not because you made me smile a little brighter Not because I once thought we were meant to be All these things made me desire your company But I unspokenly wanted all your attention If I had asked, would you have accepted? Or would my greed and insecurities have driven you away? You knew my insecurities about              my appearance                        my family                                my past You took me as I was But I never found a common ground with you Keeping me in the dark about you          Your attention                   Your Patience                             Your composure                      seemed to all be a facade I wouldn't notice thunderstorm in the background    Of course, I notice I always wanted you to be truly happy A happiness that might not involve me Sadly with a smile, correct myself       Will most definitely won't involve me               if I catch a glimpse                   please let me smile and cry                         Let me drunkly sing to                           Jeff Buckley's Hallelujah

A Love that was not Mine
I... I dearly miss you Not because loving you brings me to life Not because you made me smile a little brighter Not because I once thought we were meant to be All these things made me desire your company But I unspokenly wanted all your attention If I had asked, would you have accepted? Or would my greed and insecurities have driven you away? You knew my insecurities about              my appearance                        my family                                my past You took me as I was But I never found a common ground with you Keeping me in the dark about you          Your attention                   Your Patience                             Your composure                      seemed to all be a facade I wouldn't notice thunderstorm in the background    Of course, I notice I always wanted you to be truly happy A happiness that might not involve me Sadly with a smile, correct myself       Will most definitely won't involve me               if I catch a glimpse                   please let me smile and cry                         Let me drunkly sing to                           Jeff Buckley's Hallelujah
I hope you love them as much as they love you Bye My Love
