Each and every ocean has the safety of it shores,
My every being is drawn to yours.
Just as there is no laughter without tears,
I want to be the one to share your fears.
Without the towering struggle there can be no gain,
I want to be the one that shoulders your pain.
As morning changes to afternoon, then to night,
I want to be the one to hold you tight.
There are synonyms for words, and words that rhyme.
It is you, that I want to spend my time.
For every cherished secret, there are harmful lies,
Everything is trivial when I look in your eyes.
Just like every judgement has its ration,
I want to be the one that ignites your passion.
Mistaken feelings had arisen again,
I know in my heart I'll never win.
Confusing my mind of what wasn't there,
Telling you I loved you wasn't fair.
Our feelings for each other were not the same,
It was so unfortunate, no one gained.
Winners, there were none.
But in the end, I had to do what was done.
Confessions of emotions were revealed,
But friendship for me, is all you could feel.
Our love meant so much to me,
More than I can say.
I can't believe the fool I've been,
To let it slip away.
It seemed so easy then,
Not caring how you felt.
But too late have I realized,
I should have dealt.
If only I could turn back the hands of time,
Then to you I would prove
That I know now of my mistakes,
Thinking of myself and not of you.
My feelings had gone, only sadness was left.
Confusion and suffering has led to my death.
I knew no answers, so I turned to you.
But would you help? No, other things to do.
So there I was, alone and afraid.
Only one solution, only one way.
A personal struggle, my mind at war.
Yes, suicide was knocking at my door.
(Response to Only One Way)
A tear from my eye,
Running to your unspoken cry.
In time the pain may heal,
But lonliness is all that I can feel.
It's the feeling of guilt,
Stemmed from the friendship we had built.
If I only I had heard you,
Had listened for a moment or two.
I could have helped you in some way,
Sadly though, it was not meant to work that way.
