What Could Have Been

Why confuse me?
What good would it do?
Would it delay the pain?
Could it make anything better?
There's no virtue in what you're doing,
All you did was leave me hanging.
Hardly a goodbye, lost long ago,
No more words-do you know who I am?
I'm the love of your life,
The one you've been waiting for.
I'm beauty and perfection,
Everything you've ever wanted.
I am you, and I will remain
Forever in your heart.
Deny it all you want,
Pretend like you don't need me.
I see right through you,
And I'll always be here.
I'm everything you could ask for-
Have you seen me before?
That's me in the crowd,
That's me in the street
I'm always one step behind.
I've cared for you all along-
Do you love me?
You said it before,
Admit it, I'm right.
But I'm still very doubtful-
Was it all a lie?
A clever trick, perhaps,
To you, it's all a game.
So go on and play, just leave me out
I'm not a part of you anymore.
You got bored with me,
So you threw me aside-
Do you know how much it hurts?
Do you care when I cry?
No.
You proved that long ago.
If you cared for me
You wouldn't have left-
So why do I still believe?
Am I just to blind to see?
Am I being incredibly naive?
Yes.
That is, if I truly believe
That you'll come back to me.
And yet you torture me so.
You gave me a taste of something I wanted,
Wanted for years and years.
You gave it to me,
But then you took it away.
You ripped it away so brutally,
So quickly, but it wasn't painless.
I've suffered-don't you see?
Of course not. You don't care about me.
So all that you left me with
Is a taste of paradise
And something that could have been.
