I say I liked him, but in truth, I never did.
It was always you.
It was you who was there for me
It was you who knew most about me
It was you who saw my highest and lowest
It was you who understood me
It was you who recalled every story I told
It was you whose kindness affected me
It was you who always looked out for me
It was you whose opinion I valued most
It was you whom I texted despite my situation
It was you whom I strive to be with
It was you who always knew what to say
It was you who never left me alone
It was you whom I stayed up late with texting
It was you who never left my mind
It was you, and always will be you.

Is it so difficult for you
To share what you’re feeling?

You tell me everything else,
Your joys
Your troubles
Your memories
But never once have you shared
That agonizing flame of pain
As he crosses your mind.

You suppress your feelings
And you stay by his side
But both you and I know well enough—
That isn’t what you truly desire.

Though there’s nothing I can do
To ease that flame you hold
I love you more than enough
To be willing to listen
And hold your hand
As you reminisce the moments
You thought he loved you back

I was too naive
To accept the fact
I could never be
The one that you like
