A bucket of light and darkness

You still don't know

Why do you think I am feeling alone?

I'm walking beside you; you can't  stop staring at your phone,

I'm feeling so empty inside,

You make me want to go and hide,

So what do I think when I tell you; "I am fine"

I want to believe me, but I know that I lie;

You don't.

You're ignoring my calls and ignoring my texts,

You tell me you haven't gotten any rest,

You're burning the pictures of your own mistakes,

But when I tell you to stop, I tell you as your friend;

"You are too addicted to fall in love again".

I call you out, and tell you; "But it's fine"

You tell me; "It's love, but she'll never be mine" and I know;

She was never yours, and might never be,

But you were never mine either, and we both know that for real,

Still, I'm the one standing here when you are feeling down, and she's not.

You still don't know.
