No One Told Me
No one told me that it would be this hard
To not hold you
To not smile
To not have you
To not feel you
To not kiss you
But to love you from afar
While you’re in the arms of another
You don’t know how I feel
You don’t know that I wonder what it would be like
To hold you
To smile
To have you
To feel you
To kiss you
I didn’t know when I met you that you would
consume my every thought
I didn’t know that when I thought about a
future without you in it, I would feel as if my
world would stop turning
I didn’t know that every time I saw your face
my breath would hitch, my heart would pound
I didn’t know that I would love you
No one told me that I would fall so deeply
in love with you that I would never find my
way back onto my feet
