it was never easy letting you go;
pretending I didn't love you made me drown in sorrow;
i wanted so much to hug you and say 'i love you too' ;
but though you were my wall, you served as her knight;
and I didn't want to take away her light;
i was afraid we'd hurt her so i put up a show;
i became the villain and i made you her hero;
it hurts like hell to see you with her;
but it's rather that than to see her suffer;
she was a princess and i was just her servant;
you were her prince but you were also my wall, my heart and anchor through it all;
and I know you hate me for what I did;
but someday, you'll understand the sacrifice that I made.
