I didn't even know you were my inspiration until you left
I was a coward
Do you know why I didn't tell you?
I was afraid of your reaction
.
Everyone knew what I felt about you
How could you be so numb?
It was partly my fault, I'm sorry
I didn't even want to admit to myself that I love you
.
Now my ship is sinking
Nothing can change the fact that you're with someone now
Believe it or not, I'm happy for you
Isn't it, love means the happiness of the other person is essential to your own?
.
Unfortunately, I still glimpse at our past
The tiny bits of shared jokes, sweet smiles, and whispered conversations
Your voice and your face haunt me in my dreams
How can I move on if I constantly see you anywhere I look?
.
I know it will take a lot of time to heal this pain inside me
But I'm willing to wait as long as I can get this out of my system
I don't want to see you because I'm afraid I'll fall in love with you all over again
And all the things I did and still do to forget you will be worth for nothing
.

Thank you! :)
