Don'T You Love Me Like That?

He is everything to me.
But I still miss you
it's plain to see.
He doesn't know me
like you do.
He just has a problem 
seeing me all the way through.
But he loves me
and I know that without a doubt.
I love him too,
but you're all I think about.
He loves me more 
than you ever did.
Why don't you love me like that?
Why can't you hold me like that?
Why aren't you there?
It's because you don't even care.
