"Gone, always"

It's been two days
Since that second
I saw your face
Life stopped for a moment

I didn't know what to do
Or what to say
Because whenever I'm around you
My voice remains at bay

My heart stills
My tongue ties
Spine tingled with chills
Tears sprung in my eyes

As I saw you with her
My heart shattered to pieces
Even though I'm hurt
You deserve happiness

I feel so bad
That I'm like this
That I felt glad
When she rejected your kiss

You had asked her to the dance
But her answer was no
She let go of your hands
That's what you should do; let go

As a best friend, I had to be there
Hold you in my arms as you cried
As my fingers raked through your hair
My emotions behind a mask, they hide

You told me you can't get over her
How she just broke up with you
You screamed "I loved her!"
"After everything we've been through.."

How long will it take?
For you to realize it?
Can't you see my smile is fake?
How long do I have to wait?

I told you today
About my feelings
You just walked away
Heartache was my only feeling

We never spoke again
No more eye contact
Nothing ever felt the same
But I got the fact

Thanks for all the laughs
The smiles, and even the heartbreak
She's walking down the aisle to her other half
What a wonderfully wedded couple you'd make

I attended your wedding, your baby shower
And even the funeral
All along I was alone, it was that way forever
But now losing you is eternal

You affected me so much, ex best friend
You made me know who I was
You made me who I am
But you never knew I loved you first

So here I am
Where you died
With no one, I'm damned
Many hours I've cried

Should I, or should I not
Jump to my death?
Just know it's not your fault
This is what's best

You took a part of me
With you to your grave
So now you'll see
My smile and wave

It was nice to live
Much better to die
I've been in grief
For too long, so hi

Nice to meet you again
My dear soulmate
But you still left me insane
I guess being with you just isn't my fate

I never felt peace
Since you were gone
And even now, it never ceased
Where do I really belong?

I guess even after everything
I did for you
I still wasn't good enough, darling
Not for you

Now she's here, and you're happy
I'm back in the shadows, out of your way
This is where I should be
So this is where I shall stay

Where you asked her to marry you
And make you the happiest man
And I introduced her to you
But this wasn't my plan

Is there a way to die in afterlife?
If so, please let me know
It's like when I told you to with your wife
Yet I still can't let go

Goodbye, my old friend
My first love, my true one
I'm too tired to pretend
It's been fun

I left, and only now you know
I'm the one for you
But it's too late, I've let go
It was nice to know you
