I Knew You

We were first friends and for years we grew up together I fell for you, when I shouldn’t For years, I kept it inside of me Not ready to reveal my true emotions For I feel it will ruin everything we have between us You let me wear your clothes and I felt the comfort You hug me when I needed it, and I felt the love You made me smile & laugh, and I felt the energy If only I could hold it forever Not letting go what once was I knew you, even before you knew yourself You came out, with no acceptance from the ones you love I was there showing what I had always given to you over time The smell of passionate smoke surrounding us I wish I can take your pain away, but all I could do was hold you The spark between us develop and we were together finally But no one knew one mistake ruin it all The heartbreak that made me cry every night I thought I knew you, when we were under that dark sky Where I look into your eyes and knew this was where I’m meant to be Now all I see is what was, as I reminisce about us Your presence and scent linger everywhere I go As I make my way through the rain We would never be the same anymore You became the person I no longer know This is how I knew you
