Journal of life

Distance

You held my hand through it all
You listened when I wanted to talk
Even if it was some shit that I spout
You were with me while all I saw was dark
So afraid that I would fall
But then you stood there holding me up
How could I ever thank you enough
Though in it all what I forgot
Was to see your feelings clear in light but my darkness overcame
I should have known how you had felt
But was too self-centered to realise it
And now you're gone and all I feel is pain
Of losing you to someone else
I don't blame you at all
Cause you deserve the best
But I hoped and prayed that best was me
I know I realised it too late
I know letting you go was a mistake
So I try and try to mend the bond
But the distance keeps growing on
And I crave your affection
I crave your attention, call me selfish
I know I am
But now I also know it is for someone else
Tell me what I can do to go back to how we used to be
Go back to the time it was just you and me
Now we don't even have time to talk
And now I realise what I had lost

I miss you I need you I want you
But what a cruel thing can destiny be
You never get what you really want
