That\'s Life

It still hurts sometimes, but I have come to peace with where me and you are,

And I guess I like the fact that me and you are sleeping under the same stars.

No matter how hard I try, a piece of my heart will always be with you,

And I know that there is nothing else for me to do.

Me and you haven’t talked in a while, and shouldn’t that be enough?

Because I never imagined that letting you go was going to be this tough.

But I think holding onto you would have been worse,

But whether I hold on or let go, knowing you has almost felt like a curse.

It’s not that you’re a bad person, you just messed with my head,

Because I hold onto all the memories and all the words that you said.

What’s crazy to think is I don’t know if I would change anything,

Because now it’s painful, but at one point, there was so much joy that you would bring.

If I could go back in time, knowing what I know now,

I would still be so confused and wondering how.

How it was that you still had a hold on me no matter what i would do,

And that I would still approach it the same, even though this time, I had a clue.

Of how it would all end up being in the end,

That I fell so hard for you, but you never saw me as anything more than a friend.

But I would still ask you how your game went, hoping for a different result,

Because I can’t change the way that I felt.

And that’s when I realized I loved you, because despite what you put me through, I still felt the 

same,

And at this point, there really is no one to blame.

I won’t apologize for loving you, because it is out of my control,

Because it was so much more than your personality and your looks, but I fell for your soul.

And you can’t help that you never loved me back,

And that when you look at me, you feel nothing, and only see a sea of black.
