Loved and Lost

I used to think the most hurt I could be

was loving someone that didn't love me.

I know now I was wrong because of how I love you.

and the way you hurt me when you don't even mean to

if I could have loved you without knowing the way

To have you love me entirely, not have to beg you to say.

But I do know how it feels to be loved and wanted

And now to have loved and then lost leaves me feeling haunted.

If I could've loved you with no reciprocation you see,

I'd been fine but this hurt I wouldn't wish upon my worst enemy.
