Why did I make you cry?

Why is it you still seek my approval?

I made a fool of myself.
<br />
This is your song.
<br />
Why must it be sad?
<br />
Why haven’t I got any feelings left?
<br />
Why can’t I try?
<br />
I loved you too much.
<br />
I’ve become too comfortable.

With being no one.]]></description>

Why I don’t know.

You were never what I wanted.

I won’t bother you.

With all this.

Your face so clear.

In my mind.

All the sleepless nights.

An ode to you.

An ode to guilt.

If only I knew what you thought.

Thought of me.
<br />
At this point.
<br />
But I will never know.
<br />
And it torments me.

Day after day.

Still.
<br />
Here I am.

With the guilt.]]></description>

Starring out my imaginary nothingness window of tranquility and solitude. 

No answer was received. 

In my disappointment I moaned love doesn’t exist nor anything for that matter. 

Couldn’t help the tear pleading to force itself out of my eyes.

Your role.

But then I said.

You’ll always have me.

And then you changed.
<br />
You never needed me.

I watched you deny.

Everything we had.

I’ll know until the day I die.

That you felt the same way as I.]]></description>
