All Along
He looked at her with his dark brown eyes
She answered with an empty stare
His heart was weeping, in his eyes it showed
But she simply didn't care.
He walked around, passing by her
Hoping she would see
That the hurt she caused in this poor boy's heart
Was killing him painfully.
He was close to her, perhaps a foot between
But there's no word he could say
He wanted to kiss her, show her he loved her
But he knew it was not okay.
He walked away, took distance from her
And just kept it all inside
He thanked himself for doing it
Coz on that spot, he could've died.
He was happy just seeing her with a smile on her face
Happily dancing through the night
He, too, was smiling, but deep inside
He knew he wasn't alright.
He wanted to hold her and take her away
But there was nothing much he could do
He was fed up of thinking of any other way
How he wished this wasn't true.
It was painful for him to see her go
The pain's more than it might seem
But he knew where to stand, he knew his place
She didn't belong to him.
He loved her all his life, she was lucky indeed
But this girl just couldn't see
And I was there, watching all along
And wishing the girl was me...
