Sacrifice In Love's Name
I remember all those movies so sappy.
We were always together so happy.
You were nothing more than a friend.
That's what I made myself think, I had to pretend.
But the truth really was that I loved you.
I thought if not now, then that's what we'll both grow into.
But then she came.
I must however admit that you are the one I will blame.
Nothing was in control any longer.
Neither of us willing to fix it to make things stronger.
I gave my feelings away and you had said no
But my love clung on, not letting go.
But then you broke, you snapped on two.
There was no way, I didn't try to fix you,
My love still shined, so bright.
But my hatred turned to have a whole lot more might.
I wanted revenge and all I got was none.
I realized what we had is now completely gone.
I want you to know that it doesn’t matter.
And now that I am gone I hope you are better.
My love is never gone its only away.
I just hope you know and love me too someday.
I sacrificed myself for your well-being.
But there is something inside me, that tearing feeling.
