Unrequited

The love I feel is so one sided,

keep it a secret I decided.

What I wish can never be,

the one you want isn't me.


Who am I to hold you back,

when they are all that I lack?

With him you seem so happy,

yet it still hurts me to see.


There's a joy within your smile,

I haven't seen in a long while.

The one I can't give you,

no matter what I do.


He makes you laugh but I cry,

supporting you I must lie.

Somehow I always knew,

my fantasies weren't true.
