Bucket list

Sadly enough 
I'm running out of time
I remind myself 
it is love that I can't find
And this knowledge 
That I bear 
Means nothing if I cannot share 
And this pain I must endure
Will be in vain forever more 
And destiny which was never mine 
Is still so fresh on my mind 
All is Lost and gone 
But why can't I just move on 
I will never find Peace at last 
If I can never get away from my past 
I just want someone to love
Someone tell me that I'm okay 
Tell me I don't have to feel this way 
All alone and to my dismay 
I watch myself wither away 
Already gave you all that I have 
In desperate attempt
To have what you have 
I'll never be as happy as you 
As sad as it is you know it's true 
But I couldn't hurt people like you do
And you do it so well 
like it's nothing new
I guess before my time is through 
I should show the world what I can do 
Even though the truth 
you care not to know
I can see the love 
that you feared to show 
Soon the whole world 
will know my name 
I refuse to live a life in vain 
Motivated by anger deception and pain 
My revenge will fall like rain 
Then you all will feel my pain 
Then you'll know what I did I did for you 
Then you'll know my love was true 
Then you'll understand 
What I had to do
