A letter to the one I love.

Hey, you know it hurts.
It hurts to see,
See you with her.
Laughing,
Smiling your smile.

I know I said I've moved on.
It was a lie.
I tried, Don't get me wrong.
I like them, but I love you.
But I hold onto this pain that I find is caused by that too.

I hate that I want you.
Hate that I love you.
Hate that I can't have you.
We're over.
Yeah, I know.
But it doesn't mean my love for you didn't stop.
I said that I loved you and I didn't lie.

I want to move on but it hurts.

Why does the thought of you being with someone else hurt.
The weight of 1,000 pounds on my chest.
The 400 words never said.
The texts never sent.
I like them but I love you.

What is this pain I go through?

You say you don't like her.
What can I say.
It still hurts,
This pain wouldn't go away.

Make me stop loving you,
Please,
I want to move on,
My love for you,
I don't want to go on.

Goodbye and goodnight.
I hope you sleep tight,
But I know I probably won't.

I guess I will just leave you wondering,

Why has she become so distant?

I just guess you can call me selfish,
For wanting you back.

But, my friend liking you,
It feels like I stepped on a floor full of tacs.

I could accept the fact that we are history but it hurts,
The thought of you with someone else.
I hope you know that.
