Is This The Beginning or The End?
 
 
I sit here, staring at the text on my screen.
I read over the words for the third time,
Only to find tears rolling off my cheek.
I never thought I'd hurt so much.
I never thought I'd lose you.
You say I never will,
I know down deep I  already have.
Tonight, we faced reality.
A reminder of how we'll never touch,
How we'll never kiss, or  hold each other,
To never see your smile, to never hear your laugh.
You tell me you want a friendship,
Baby, that's all right.
Even though I watch you fade further away
Each time we talk.
 
And when I saw the words
"I don't want to see you"
Written on my screen,
I put my head in my hands,
And realized, that the person who had taught me
How to love again,
Could not love me back once I found it.
I only wish for this:
For you to trust me,
To believe me when I say I love you.
To be happy that I found someone
Who makes me happy.
Someone who loves me for me.
And not just a one night fling.
Baby, I will always love you.
You were never an option to me.
You are real to me.
And I'll always care and love you.
Even if you don't feel the same.
I know you don't feel the love we once shared.
Why? Because when
I told you I cared for you,
You told me nothing.
I told you I loved you,
And all you could say was
goodbye.
