Better than me
For a moment there, I am sure as hell that I am in love with you,but I didn't know what happened,
and I didn't know it was possible to just stop being in love...with you
because it's you and God knows how long I have prayed
for you to finally say that you love me, too,
that you're in love with me, too.
Suddenly, you loving me back doesn't seem to matter to me anymore.
It's no longer the same and I can't put into words
when or how this happened
because I know I still love you--
I think I will always do,
but it's just not like I used to...
not anymore.
I have waited so long for this to happen,
for us to finally happen
when no one would try to tear us apart,
when no one could ever tear us apart,
except ourselves,
and in this case, it was me
and I know this is stupid to say
and is just so cliche,
but I'm sorry.
I love you differently now,
but I didn't know how to let you go
because I know that either way,
I will hurt you,
and I don't know if I can take that.
But by saying all these now,
I know that I already am.
I'm just not sure how to stay still
when deep inside, I have already let you go.
I care for you and maybe, I will always do
because some things just might never change,
but I don't want to bind you with me anymore
when I know you can find someone else that truly deserves you,
that you truly deserve,
and I know that isn't me.
I want to free you from someone who's no longer sure of you
because sure enough, you could do better,
so much better than me.
