Unrequited
Dear Jason,
Are you sitting there thinking about her every single day
While I'm sitting here completely alone just withering away?
Then I should just stop hoping, if that seems to be the case
But you'll never see how many times I glance over at your face
Are you lying in bed imagining her and how beautiful she looks
While I'm lying on the carpet amongst papers and textbooks?
Maybe you've forgotten how you longed for me before
But now I'll just play sad songs and let tears fall on my floor
Are you standing before the audience and just wishing she were here
While I watch very carefully, your voice music in my ears?
I guess when you're without her, you're never fully whole
But maybe I should stop letting your existence crush my soul
Are you laughing on that sofa and just hoping she'll arrive
While I'm praying that she won't so that my happiness won't die?
Whenever you're around her and I look, I see you smile
And I know deep down inside my joy's gone for a while
Are you sleepless in the evenings, thinking of things that you'd do
While I'm staring at the ceiling, hopelessly in love with you?
You once told me you loved me but brushed it all away
And now I'm trying to find some reasons not to stay
Are you texting her sweet nothings like you used to do to me
While I keep having nightmares about how perfect we would be?
I'm trying every day and night to hide my broken heart
But it actually hurts sometimes whenever we're apart
Are you spending every single day just wishing she were yours
While I'm hiding the fact that when I'm with you my heart soars?
I lie in bed just breaking down over all the signs I see
Try to abandon all my hope that you'll end up with me
Were you pretending that you saw me, when all you saw was her
And led me to believe in the nothing that we were?
So I guess you can hang onto her, and now I'll really try
To find someone who loves me more; for now, this is goodbye
Sincerely,
Sophia
