A Moment to Feel

You Don't, I Don't.

You don't have to love me,

You don't have to want me,

You don't have to need me,

You don't have to miss me,

You don't even have to care about me.

I don't have to love you,

I don't have to want you,

I don't have to need you,

I don't have to miss you,

I don't even have to care about you.

I just do.

I love you more than life,

I want you more than pain,

I need you more than air,

I miss you more than sleep,

I care about you more than tomorrow.

We both know that you love me,

We both know that you want me,

We both know that you need me,

We both know that you miss me,

We both know that you care about me.

But what we don't know is how much.

Don't run away from your feelings,

They're the best things that you have,

They are all yours,

and yours alone,

Nobody can take that away from you.

They remain in your heart always,

You just have to realize that they are there,

Hidden among pain that you never show,

The pain you need to let go,

But you don't.

To save who?

It doesn't save you.

Not showing your pain just adds more,

Let out your pain.

And after that, you will see.

How much you love me,

How much you want me,

How much you need me,

How much you miss me,

Even how much you care about me.

Then you will finally understand.

Why I love you with no pain,

Why I want you with no regrets,

Why I need you with no reasons,

Why I miss you with no shame,

Why I care about you with no gain.

Don't do this for me,

Do this for you.

Please just see at least this much.

Don't worry about my hurt and my pain,

Worry and think about your own.
