It hurts. A lot. I haven't felt this way before, like I've never loved anyone as much as I loved Jack.

But that's all gone.

He's taken.

He forgot about me.

I tried my best not to spill. Not to show ...

But no one's there to even see me, why am I concealing this?

I picked up my guitar and set my old camera on my desk, sat at the edge of my bed, took out my phone and strummed.

"I heard
That you're
Settled down that you
Found the guy and you're
Married now
I heard that your dreams came true
Guess he gave you things
I didn't give to you
Old friend
Why are you so shy
Ain't like you to hold back
Or hide from the light

I hate to turn up out of the blue uninvited but I
Couldn't stay away
I couldn't fight it and I hope you'd see my face and that you'd be reminded that for me
It isn't over

Nevermind I'll find
Someone like you
I wish nothing but the best
For you two
Don't forget me
I beg
I'll remember you said
Sometimes it lasts in love
But sometimes it hurts instead
Sometimes it lasts in love
Sometimes it hurts instead

You know how the
Times flies only
Yesterday was the
Time of our lives we were born and raised
In a
Summer haze
Bound by
The surprise
Of our glory days

I hate to turn up out of the blue uninvited but I
Couldn't stay away
I couldn't fight it and I hope you'd see my face and that you'd be reminded that for me
It isn't over

Nevermind I'll find
Someone like you
I wish nothing but the best
For you two
Don't forget me
I beg
I'll remember you said
Sometimes it lasts in love
But sometimes it hurts instead

Nothing compares no worries
No cares
Regrets and mistakes
They're memories made
Who would have known how
Bittersweet
this
would
taste

Nevermind I'll find
Someone like you
I wish nothing but the best
For you two
Don't forget me
I beg
I'll remember you said
Sometimes it lasts in love
But sometimes it hurts instead."

Then when I finished, I said—

"This ... goes out to the one I loved ... the one who asked me about what's my favorite DC superhero ... this is sincerely for Jack, Jack McLoughLin. Jack if you're watching this I just want you to know that I am really so happy for you. You've found someone who could truly appreciate you for who you are better than me. Maybe I was meant for someone else. But ... if you want to ... you can stop calling me at work ... anyways, thanks for watching my cover of 'Someone Like You."
