Today I saw you alone.
I tried not to look worried.
I put up a brave front and looked down.
I saw you avoid my gaze.
I began to ask you everything.
I wanted to run out many times
Yet I stood there looking straight at you.
I didn't want to show any weakness.
You told me things I knew you would.
I saw your eyes in pain and I wanted to make it go away,
Yet I forced myself to burn that in my mind.
I couldn't do anything for you at all.
I felt that I never saw you until today.
I had no idea what to do anymore.
I turned away and tears fell
If you saw me then I'm sorry you saw me that way.
I swallow all my stupid pride!
I'M SORRY! I wanna shout.
I hate this feeling that I have.
I know this will never reach you.
I haven't slept or eaten.
I don't know why I bother anymore.
Life gave us this lesson.
We had to learn it.
I still remember all our memories.
The way your arms wrapped around me.
That scent that belonged only to you.
You smile at all my stupid comebacks.
I close my eyes and feel you near me.
I remember when I fell in love with you.
I remember our conversations and your hand in mine.
I go back to those days all the time.
I miss your sweet voice
I miss those sweet words
I miss your presense
I miss everything but I can't go back.
I'm sorry for that stupid night.
I'm sorry I made you hurt,
I wish we could go back.
I'm sorry we will never go back to those days.
