I have watched you suffer,
I have watched you build up hope
Just to have it all crash.
I’ve seen you find something
And chase after it for years
Just to get rejected.
I’ve seen you believe in love
Then have your heart ripped out
And give up on it.
I’ve seen you give up on many things,
Even the thing that matters most;
You’ve tried to say goodbye to me multiple times,
Yet it never turned out how you wanted it to.
I’ve watched you fall asleep with tears in your eyes,
After a day of holding them back.
I’ve watched you walk around with a fake smile on
And when you forget it,
People ask what’s wrong but you lie to them and say nothing.
You think that no one can help you,
And maybe you’re right.
I’ve heard your thoughts of how you’ll just be judged,
And I see that happen to you every day.
I’ve heard you think that it’s not possible for someone to know you
If you don’t know yourself,
And that no one can love you…
If you don’t love yourself.
