I listened to the things you loved
more than me,
and I didn't complain.
Instead, I watched you speak
as your eyes sparkled with passion,
and a part of my heart shattered.
Because in that moment,
I knew you would never love me that way.

I don't know how messed up it is
to know you're strong,
yet having to prove it every time
by getting your heart broken
by the one person whom you looked at
and thought, "It's going to be you."

My heart aches
because of how much I miss you every moment.
There is one thing for sure,
that is,
I will never let anyone know me
the way you did.
And now I look at you
and think, "I thought it was going to be you."
