i’ve seen the change in you

the way you’ve gone from loving

to cold and distant

in almost no time at all

i see the way you protect your phone

you think i don’t know

i hate to break it to you

but i’m not as oblivious as you think

and through it all,

i remember a time

when you loved me

i remember a time

when i was the only girl you could see

i remember a time

when i was enough for you

i think i made you happy for a while

i think i helped you

out of the dark space

you forced yourself into

i’d be lying

if i said you didn’t help me too

you listened to me

you cared for me

you made me laugh

you have no idea how long it had been

since anyone had been able

to put me in such a constant state

of happiness

i ended up getting hurt

but it was all worth it

We speak our minds

We fight

We ignore each other

And neither side knows why

We can’t communicate

We don’t know where to turn

The world starts to fall apart

As it often does

When we need answers

That no one has

And in it all,

Some can find beauty

Some can find happiness

Some choose

To not let it all

Ruin their lives

We find out who loves us

We find out who we’ve overlooked

We find out who we are

In the end,

We are all closer

We may struggle

But it was all worth it

The agony, suffering,

The disappointment,

The hopes dashed,

Are all worth it.

Just seeing your face,

Is enough for me.

As long as you are happy,

I am happy,

Even if I am not with you,

Or you are not mine.

I would die for you,

But do not care if,

Or even want you to,

Die for me.

Exchanging my happiness,

For pain,

So you can be happy,

Would be worth it all.

Without you near me,

Life hurts,

But it was all worth it.
