You don't want me
But hush now don't say it
I don't know if the words ache
Because I know it's true
Or because you won't admit it
You don't want me
The phrase that beats me black and blue,
Pours out of my eyes like summer rain,
Aches my bones like a cold winter morning,
And I let it

Since I first met you,
I felt a strong connection,
An unseen bond,
Tying us together in silence.

But often, your actions confuse me,
Like sunshine behind a cloud.
Sometimes you seem to care,
Then suddenly, you don't.

Even though I see reasons to let go,
I choose to stay.
Why do I act this way?
What holds me back?

I wonder,
Do you feel the same?
Why are you so kind,
Spending time with me, helping me?

Your sweet words make me feel special,
But I'm afraid it’s just temporary.
Afraid you’re just playing,
And I'm only a friend when you’re bored.

These questions linger in my mind,
But deep down, I know,
In the end, I might have to walk away.
Because staying will only hurt me.
