Time Is Running Out

I want you 
But you don't want me
I'm tired of wondering
If this would ever be

You claimed you love me
But I can't tell
Love is more than words can't you see
As I wondered about this love

Which made me feel lonely and empty
You ignore me all the time
Saying words that are never kind
I'm tired of feeling in the way that I do

When all I want is to love you true
Your time is running out
And you'll miss me when I'm gone
In this relationship I never felt so alone

It's time to say goodbye
And I wish you well
I hope you find someone true
That would be good as I was to you

It seems there is alot behind this, alot of indecision in the relationship? I really like it and can relate! Good write.
