> Listen to "For the Lover that I lost" by Sam Smith

_

Hmm
Think about your lips and the way they kiss
There's so much I really miss about you
Sitting on the beach, you were still in reach
And I haven't felt free without you

The second song started just as mellow like the first one. It reminded Taehyung of the times he would just pull Jungkook for a kiss, the way the younger's lips tasted. It reminded him of those memories from when they weren't dating. When they were just two bestfriends, navigating through a new world of feelings. Feelings they felt for each other.

All of the memories feel like magic
All of the fighting seemed so sweet
All that we were, my love, was tragic
And you're the last thing that I need

Taehyung still needed the younger. He knew that. His heart had always belonged to Jungkook, even after they had gone their separate ways. Even after Taehyung destroyed his own happiness by breaking the heart of the younger.

So I lay a dozen roses for the lover that I've lost
I stand by all my choices, even though I paid the cost
Oh, all those nights, the lows and highs, I share them all with you
So I lay a dozen roses, I lay them there, I lay them there for you, mm

Even though the lyrics sounded so sad, Taehyung couldn't help but smile. Smile because he felt that pain, the same one that Jungkook was describing. He too, shared all his highs and lows with the younger. In the solace of his home, Taehyung had pictures of Jungkook, hidden in a room meant for the younger. He talked to those pictures, telling them about his life, his insecurities and even though jungkook wasn't really there, wasn't really listening, it gave Taehyung some sort of relief. Some sort of comfort. Jungkook was Taehyung's bestfriend first, lover after. And his one decision took away that friendship too. It was all his fault.

You've been on my mind, every single night
I can't visualize life without you
I've been tryna go a week without losing sleep
But there's something that I need to go through

The younger was always on Taehyung's mind as well. It was funny how both of them felt the same way, yet they both were dealing with different emotions. Jungkook was hurt, heartbroken by Taehyung's silence, by Taehyung's actions. Taehyung on the other hand was broken by his own stupid actions. He broke his own heart and in the process, ripped himself of all his happiness.

All of the memories feel like magic
All of the fighting seemed so sweet
All that we were, my love, was tragic
And you're the last thing that I need

So I lay a dozen roses for the lover that I've lost
I stand by all my choices, even though I paid the cost
Oh, all those nights, the lows and highs, I share them all with you
So I lay a dozen roses, I lay them there, I lay them there for you, oh, oh

Oh Jungkookie. If only you knew just how sorry I am. If only you knew just what you mean to me. If only.
