Im not your enemy

So many memories
of when I wasn't the enemy
when you craved just to be next to me
Flashbacks to how your love used to be
Like our future together 
was so easy for you to see
You wanted every part of me
n every night I was the one starring in your dreams
Being close made us both feel so complete
way back when it hurt so bad 
when I had to leave
I close my eyes and can still
feel my heart & souls relief 
these memories now can 
sometimes be hard to conceive 
even more so when I know
how differently Im perceived 
you no longer see what our 
Souls together can achieve 
The doubt thats filled your heart 
has left scars in parts that were
once filled with belief 
Im not your enemy 
but im almost out of energy
I cant compete
with your lost visions of me
thought your love was mine to keep
now I just sit here in complete agony
feeling so damn incomplete
Damn, the irony...
