Lost
it’s been one month
since the time has past
if i knew that time i held you
would’ve been my last
i would’ve dug my claws in
to never let you go
my days are cold
and my nights are alone
I wish you never left that night.
and I wish you would’ve stayed
and that we finished that fight
and we could’ve behaved
because now we’re individuals
own groups, own circles
and yet i can’t go to sleep
because i’m still up hurting
it doesn’t mean it was a mistake
or that it’s not worth it
but i look back on memories
and I view them as perfect
and in reality that not what it was.
I wish that i treated you better
i feel so much regret
for not opening up
and getting it off my chest.
you once said
‘you just don’t get it, i don’t know how else to explain it to you’
I understood what you said
and if i am being so true
my honest word is
i couldn’t express myself to you
i tried as hard as i could
yet
my efforts
we’re no good.
after our breakup
i was worried for your health
i wanted to reach out
and to try to help
but i know you’re working on yourself.
it’s hard for me to move on
it’s a process full of pain
but i know it’s the right thing to do
not in my heart, but in my brain.
i hope you’re doing okay
i mean, as well as you can
i hope one day you can go off
and find the right man
who gives you what you deserve
because even though you can’t right now
i can see your self worth.
i hope he can be like me
and make you the centre of his world
and even though not mine
to me, you’re still more
way more
than just a girl.
