Once upon a time I loved you,
Loved you simply because I did.
How could I not?
You were perfect
And full of perfect possibilities,
And so I loved you.

Then I loved you because I was supposed to,
But that was ok
Because I didn't know the difference,
And it still felt like love
Because some of the real love
Could still be real...
Couldn't it?
Either way, I loved you.

Slowly I became unsure,
Until one day I loved you because I had to,
But it was all an act,
And I was just forcing love,
Love I couldn't understand,
Love I could barely pretend to feel,
But maybe I could
Because there was hope,
And I still believed in love...

Now I don't love you at all,
And I try to, honestly I do,
And some days I think it could work.
I lie around daydreaming about you,
And I think I love you,
But then you hurt me again,
And everything falls apart so quickly,
And I know I can't love you,
And I know I'll still say I do,
And I know I really should,
And I know I need to,
But I know I can't love you right now...
I can't love you...

But maybe someday I will.
I hope someday I will.
Yes, someday- someday, I promise,
I will love you again.
