I was the rose that you kept inside your home; indeed protected, and safe. And there I was, thinking it was love when you checked on me everyday. Thinking it was love when you asked for someone to water me everyday. Thinking it was love when you kept me inside, safe. But i was wrong. Because there was this tulip you kept going back to at the neighbor's yard. It was love when you talked to it everyday. It was love when you watered it yourself when there was no one home. It was love when you kept it safe and alive even though it was outside. I thought it was love whenever you came back to me- but it was love whenever you went out. Maybe you just loved the fact that no matter what, I would always be here to meet you, to welcome you with arms wide open. Maybe you just loved the fact that I would always be here to reciprocate the feelings that she couldn't give. You loved the feeling of being loved, but the sad thing is, you wanted it to be from her - but I was all you had, so you took it from me.

She was love and I, - well I was comfort
