I tried.
I tried so damn hard to
Forget you.
You made me laugh
Until it hurt to smile,
You made me cry
Until it hurt to blink.
We loved each other but
We lost it.
No, we never lost it,
I threw it away.
Not once, but twice.
It was good while it lasted anyway.
Told myself
It wasn't you that I missed,
Just your tender love and
Soft kiss.
I just wanted someone to be with and
As soon as I had that again,
I'd be fine.
Well, it's been almost a year.
So much has changed since then.
I've grown older,
Grown up.
People have walked in and out,
Come and gone.
I've loved,
Laughed,
Lived,
Cried,
Bled and
Screamed.
I'm sure you have too, but
That hasn't changed much about our feelings.
I've tried to move on,
Tried to forget,
Tried to find someone else.
I might have even convinced myself that
I was over you, but
Now I'm not so sure of that anymore.
There hasn't been anyone else.
I haven't been in anyone else's arms,
No one else has held me tight and
Told me they loved me.
No one else has kissed me and
Nobody else has told me they cared.
True,
There was another that I thought I loved.
True,
There was another that I've dreamed about and
Yes,
I've danced with someone who wasn't you.
I don't even know if any of that matters because
Now there isn't anyone else in my dreams and
You're still the only one capable of
Driving me completely insane.
I've found myself in the year gone by, but
I have yet to find those arms I want to be in forever,
That smile that makes my heart melt, or
Those eyes that can stare into my soul and
I know that they love me from the bottom of their heart.
I've been true to myself, but
Not to any avail,
It's all just in vain.
I guess that's because
A Brilliant Love never a True Heart knows.
Author notes
This does have a dedication to it, but I'm not going to name him.
Those who know me should know who it's for and that's good enough.
Just wanted to let him know that he's not the only one crying himself to sleep at night.
