I was waiting for you
to look out for me
I thought my tears meant
more than just water to you
I was hoping you would
reach out to hold me
when I was trembling
with fear
but you did not, and you
never will

love is such a twisted thing
and even hate can be
less painful
you made me change
you gave me something more
precious than anything
but then you left me
without turning around
to face my sorrow

I hope you think of me
once in a while
and that your breath
gets harder to catch too
when you remember
my words from that night
you promised me you would try
I told you trying is enough
even if you never kept
your promise
I wish I had told you
how great you are

I miss you and I love you
but all those words are
too weak to describe all
there is to it
you mean so much more
you are so much more.
