still

Love that once surrounded me

Is now slowly receding

Like the tides of your affection

It's slowly disappearing


I'll always be the wide-eyed girl

Looking at you with admiration

And you'll always be the cause

Of all my heart's frustrations


I loved you before we even met

And I think I still do

But you will never return

The feelings I have for you


For a time I thought it was possible

That maybe fate was not so cruel!

Your smile was enchanting

And I was a willing fool


I think I know why it's useless

You think I might understand

I really thought love was endless

But you crumpled it in your hands


Now I'm here, patiently waiting

For future's possible happiness

Rhyming a word with the other

Trying to forget all the madness


I try to forget you

But I knew I never could

I still keep on looking

At the ground where you stood


Hoping that someday

Someone will love me as I loved you

And when they tell me they love me

They'd actually mean it too
