The Way I Love You

Sitting alone under the moonlit sky, 

you made me realize,

my love wasn't enough for you to make a COMPROMISE.

EVERY TIME I wanted to turn to you

I was afraid you would find someone who would lean on to you .

I never said and you'll never hear

my untold words of insecurity are my DARKEST FEARS.

EVERY TIME you smiled at me,

was the time I dreamt of your future with me.

But I never thought about the game of DESTINY,

that my unconfessed love drove you away and made you HATE me.

And even though I can't see you anymore

I can still feel your presence making me sore.

Even though I can't reach you anymore,

I can feel your warmth just like before.

Even though it doesn't make a difference without you anymore,

the way you reached me makes me smile just like before.

And even though I don't see you anymore,

I will love you SELFLESSLY just like before
