'Cause when I say, "Go to sleep,"
It means, "I love you."
Or when I tell you to eat,
That means, "Hey I care."
When you tell me that you love me,
and,
I call you an idiot,
That's me saying it back but with the equivalence of stupidity.
You are the reason I stay awake at night and dream with my eyes open,
You are the stars in my dark sea that I have been constantly trying to drown myself in,
You are,
For Gods sake's,
My Planet Earth because what else is going to supply me the oxygen I need when my brain says,
"Don't breathe."
You make me not want to die when all I could think of is dying cause you know,
Depression.
You are my alarm clock to when I sleep in,
My everyday phone call,
My back up plan when my back up plan needs a back up plan.
There are a billion of people out here that could have chosen me to deal with but you,
You at least tolerate me.
Thank you for the tolerance, at least.
Love.

I was yours but you were never mine
In the midst of those dark clouds
I was your sunshine.

The essence of your smile
Wiped all my tears.
The voice of your confidence
Vanished all my fears.

But all of it was just for a while
Cause I was yours
But you were never mine.

Embraced your tears
Craved for your smile
Loved your anger
And all those pretty lies.

But all of it was just for a while
Cause I was yours
But you were never mine.

The warmth of your breath across my face
The shiver of your touch filled all the space
The syncing of your lips across mine
The whisper of your voice reverberates in my mind.

But all of it was just for a while
Cause I was yours
But you were never mine.

When you were lost
I showed you the directions
But it was too late to realize
I was not your destination.

I chased your footsteps
As you walked away
Killing all my dreams ;on the way
Breaking all my hopes; I had to say
Numbing all my songs; making the lyrics float
In those sleepless night
For you which I wrote.

And now I see you
Fall over her lap
Tenderly sleeping
As she has filled the gap.
But don't worry about me
I'm fine.

Cause I was yours
But you were never mine.

For your eyes I fell,
And for your smile my heart skipped a beat for the very first time
I knew nothing but you just felt so right
Your eyes told stories
And your smile captured my heart
And never have I noticed an eye or a smile since my eyes met yours
Your image is carved in my mind and locked in my heart
Love it is or a curse
I still can't figure out
Not now
Not once
Not ever
Have I wanted you to see how I truly feel.

I'm fine
I'm okay
I'm happy
The lies I tell so you don't know how I really struggle.

Don't worry
Don't stress
Don't ask*
All things I say so you don't find out how I really suffer.
I lie so you can be okay with the decision you made.
So that you dont find out just how much I wish you hadn't have done it.
I pretend so that you think I've moved on from it.
So that you don't realise just how much I haven't moved on.
Try as I will,
Try as I might.
I've already accepted,*
*I can't win this fight.

Why do I feel so sad?
Each time I turn over
I physically, feel more bad.
Once I get over it
and think I'm alright...
the next day comes.
Then I'm up all night.
