UNREQUITED
I can't leave you with even a sliver of hope,
Because with that you'll have no way left to cope.
I can't fake false desires
Because it's surely a sin.
I can't,
Even if his heart won't give in.
Even if there's light in our future to turn to,
With every step I take,
Every move I do.
In the darkness I won't only be thinking of you.
I'll be thinking of the way he'd hide in the shadows'
And can't forget;
The way his eyes were deeper than meadows.
I can't live in falsehood
I can't be tied down,
To a heart that's happy
While my heart frowns.
Through the happy,
Through the sad,
I can't waste your time.
For a heart that isn't truly mine.
It's a fact that
Everything I have belongs to him.
He told me once,
And over again.
I can't lie,
For you have been treated wrong.
Because my heart makes a melody
And his words sang along.
It is shameful, what I have done.
I have tried to love you,
I knew I couldn't have won
Because I am his star and he is my sun.
You are kind, you are gentle, and play the part.
But I can't love you when he is king of my heart.
I have told you secrets
I would never tell.
Told you things;
That were locked in my hearts cells.
I loved, cared for him
In the spite of it,
He told me...
My love was unrequited.
