No matter how you see things,
You were the one.
The reason why I stood proud,
Like how the sky feels about the sun.
You were always there when you needed me,
You were always there to care.
No matter how bad I felt,
You were always there.
You were my hope, my life, my dreams,
You were everything to me.
But its a painful past-tense world now,
Because your a fading memory.
But it's not your fault, not at all,
About how you feel now,
Because if you look at things honestly,
At the who, what, when, why and how.
Who caused all this pain?
I'll admit it, it was me.
I never showed you much,
Barely a smile, barely seeing us as "we",
What went wrong, do you ask?
I didn't show you that I cared.
I never wanted to show you the real me,
the person that makes me scared.
Now when did I realize this?
I knew this all along.
But knowing is only half of the solution,
And doing nothing is just wrong.
Why do I reflect on this,
Even though it hurts me so much?
Because the pain is all I have,
to remember your gentle touch.
I feel I cannot live without you,
I can't understand just how...
Now baby steps is what I'll take,
Because that is all I can do now...
