at the end of the day you come to me to destress

you come to me to tell me how your day went

you come to me for comfort

you come to me for acceptance

you come to me with trust in your heart

but why didn't you come to me when it was time to choose

you tell me it didn't feel right to choose me

however every single time we talk to one another

it feels so right

i have so much love to offer

but you only come to me when their love didn't cover what you needed it to

you told me you loved me and i believed you

but it wasn't me when it came for the time to choose

i may not know them like you do

i may not be able to judge them like you do

maybe there is a reason they are with you

and maybe theres a reason for me to lose

do you know why a raven is like a writing desk?

just like the reason you chose them

i havent got the slightest clue

you don't need to love yourself for others to love you

ignore what they said; for you are beautiful

you may not see it now; nor will you see it later

but i believe you will discover yourself

layer by layer

so keep at it; try your best

it's okay not to love yourself just yet

but i urge you to realize that even if you do not

know that you would be in the heart

in someone else's chest

people stay up at night deep in thought

unable to sleep

they think of the day that has passed and the day thats waiting ahead

they think of what they've done and what they should have done

their nights filled with regret

however

my strongest feelings of regret

they hit me when i wake up in the morning

when i realize what i'm missing
