I think I'm doing better.
Better at not loving you.I think I'm doing better at being alright.
I think I've come to the point where I'm going to be okay.
I've come to the point where I'm doing okay with being your friend.
And I think I'm okay with nothing more than that.
Because I'm okay with loving you.
And I'm okay with forcing myself out of love with you.
And I'm writing this with a peaceful smile on my face, so I think that's okay.
I'm trying to be better.
To make things easier for you.And if I can make it easy for you,
Then you won't shut me out.And I think the only thing I will never be okay at is not having you in my life.
But I'm working on it,
Because I don't really know where you'll be when the summer's over.What you'll want when the summer's over.
And I'm trying to be okay with that.
Because if I'm okay,
Or at least act like I'm okay,
Then I think you'll be okay.Cause all I need from you,
Is not a kiss,
Is not a hug,
Is not your love,But all I need from you is a smile on your face.
And that is most definitely okay.
