Saying Goodbye To An Ex

I wish I could show you how I feel in my heart 

And how much inside this tears me apart

I wish that I could make my heart unbreak

And wish you loved me and all this a mistake

I can’t make you feel something you don’t feel

And it brings the question was anything real

So you feel nothing and say that you tried?

Smiles only visible with no feeling inside?

Nothing felt when your tears have been cried?

Or is it pain that you feel for me

Tears shed for mere sympathy

Don’t cry for me cause I will be fine

All I ever wanted was your heart to be mine

For some reason that doesn’t seem it can be

I can’t believe that it has to do with me

I tortured myself wondering what I did wrong

And I realized it was nothing you just want to be gone

Maybe its that you’re not ready for something like this

And the only thing I’m left with is you to miss

Dying to hold you or get one last kiss

Destroyed that things have played out like this

I don’t think I won’t be missed

And at another point in your life you might be pissed

That you let go of something so true

And someone that completely loved you

Gave you everything they were and aspired to be

And you let it go for uncertainty

But you’re unhappy and not in love which I understand

And I know this is something that you didn’t have planned

I wish I could change that somehow and fix my flipped lid

And think one day you’ll realize you loved me more than you did

Maybe that something that started one day out of thin space

Was meant for a different time and place

I’m sorry the most that I have to see you go

I will always love you more than you know
