I Want You

I want you to hurt for me like I hurt for you. 
And I wish you still wanted me even when I said we're through. 
I want you to cry so much that the tears sting your eyes. 
I want you to constantly ask yourself why?
I wish you sat at home thinking of ways to make things right. 
I want you to sit up and think of nothing but me all day and night. 
I want your feelings to get so strong you can't hide. 
I wish you felt all these things so then you would know exactly 
how I am feeling inside.
