Dear Sunshine,

Why do you hurt me so much?
I love you, don't you know that?
But you don't like me as much,
You are more affectionate with your friends,
Than with your boyfriend.
It hurts.

Why do you leave me alone?
I love you, at least I think so.
But you would rather be alone,
Than with me.
I can see that.
It hurts.

Why don't you care?
I don't think I love you anymore,
But I need you.
Not as much as you need me.
You always dismiss me.
It hurts.

When did you stop caring?
When did you stop loving?
When did we stop being good for each other?

But I can't break this up.
The guilt would eat me up.
You need someone to give your problems too.
Even if it means to sacrifice my own health.
Because even though you don't love me anymore,
I care about you.
And I need you.

Goodnight
