You Never Asked, But…
There is a reason why I eat peanut m&ms even though I don’t like peanuts
There’s a reason why I take the chocolate milkshake over vanilla at certain restaurants
And why I walk in some rooms to just stop and think
Or go through different departments in the store that I have no interest in
There _is_ a reason
And the reason is him
All of these things remind me of him
And some days I just ne...
You Never Asked, But…
I’ve been breaking apart
These past couple of weeks
I’ve been falling into a rabbit hole
Not knowing what it is I seek
Is it truth?
Or maybe kindness?
Maybe it’s just one person
Who doesn’t call me worthless
Failures never stray past your eyes
But my successes you’ll let stride
I’ve already lost count
Of how many nights I’ve uncontrollably cried
Tears do nothing
Is what you say
With eyes dark...
You Never Asked, But…
You never asked, but…
It hurts me, too.
I never wanted to hurt you
But lately that seems like all I do
I care so much that I cry over thunderstorms
At the thought that those that I love could be gone in an instant
But I understand you’re the victim
When you called me about something that happened two month ago
You’ve been miserable for all that I know
Why am I even here then, though?
For most...
You Never Asked, But…
In silent glances, I've spoken to you,
Not with words, but with truth ever true.
You never asked, yet always knew,
The shadows of my past, the light you drew.
When first we met, you changed my core,
Made me whole, but I’m unsure,
Of who I am without your light,
In your eyes, I’ve lost my sight....
You Never Asked, But(Remastered)
You never asked but,
I’m gonna tell you anyways
‘Cause every time I close my eyes
I hope I see your face
A sloppy sad love poem
Yeah, I’m writing one again
I can’t help it though, really
My thoughts for you still stand
For a while you were enough
To get me through the day
Your smile, Your eyes, Your voice
They were everything to me
At first, I didn’t think of it
The way that I do now
Back then...
You Never Asked, But
I like you
Like, really like you
Like, I think about you constantly
Like, I worry about you and always think about what you would do if you were me
You never asked me
So I never told you
I’ve liked you
Like, for longer than a year
Like, can it be considered love?
Like, do you even like me as a friend
You don’t ask me
So I assume you don’t want to know
I could talk
Like, I could talk to you for...
You Never Asked, But…
Oh yes, i know,
These feelings are taboo
They never once brought up in our conversation
Maybe you know, or maybe i'm a fool
But in this evening, i wanted to make sure
You've hurt me – sure i know, it wasn't your intention
But can i stop from feeling? Surely, not!
Believe me, if i could, i would be silent
But now i speak, i sing; my words are true
I hope one day they will reach out to you
I felt ...
