Unrequited

When you pretend to be okay
And hide what you want to say
When you break your own heart
Just to get through another day
When you watch the ones you love
Leave and walk away
When you see your fondest people
Be happy another way
When you feel them stop caring for you
you realize only your feelings were true

And then you know you cannot hate
Not the one who couldn't reciprocate
And as you think the fault falls on you
You doubt yourself and others too
You believe you're better off alone
Because you think
People aren't permanent
People aren't home
So your heart grows cold and so do you
Forever unrequited
Forever blue.
