River

Ahsi



I remember the first time you called my name, it was hot outside but my name, those letters on your lips sent chills down my spine like no other

I stayed up all night thinking of you while you slept soundly

I cried rivers for you while you couldn't even spare a drop when you saw my pain

You knew you knew how I felt and you felt it too

You chose her over me then another and another

I'm drowning in a river of my own tears my own feelings

I loved you, I loved you, I loved you

I watched you from the sidelines as you took my heart and crushed it in front of me

I kept making excuses for you pretending you didn't know how I felt

But you did

I feel drained, stripped, and empty

You?

You don't even care 

You created this paradise and this beautiful river for me

But, now that you're gone I'm left in this barren and ash filled land

You don't love me

But I

I-

I still love you
