Don't You See?

I've told you how I feel
What's in my heart
That my love is real.

I watch you sometimes
And see you watching me
I wonder...what are you thinking?
Is it love you see?

You shut me out and push me away
Not with your touch
But with your mind and words

Why do you do this to me?
What can't you see?
It's in my eyes...
My words...
My touch...
My love is true!

But you don't see
The pain you've caused
The hurt I hide inside
My heart is breaking.

My heart holds onto hope
That things might change
But in my mind
I know they never will.

You'll never know
How great my love is.
How my heart breaks
At the sound of your laugh
The sight of your smile
The feel of your touch.

I know you don't love me
That you want me to leave
You're seeing another
Why can't you love me?

It's time to let go
And begin to heal.
To move on with my life
(I wish this weren't real.)

You were part of my life
Heart and soul
You made me strong
To believe in myself

I thank you for that
And for all you taught me
I'll miss this life
But you most of all.

I only hope in the end
We can remain friends
And a little part hopes
You will finally see
That what you had was good
And that you will miss me.
