With each passing day that passes
I grow more and more withdrawn,
Hiding what I feel so deeply
that nobody else can see or feel,
For I truly am in pain.
Her love was given to me
and I was not strong enough,
Now I am left standing here
with empty arms and an ache,
yet I hide that I am in pain.
Night and day I ache for her
while knowing that it is in vain,
I did not give her all she needed
so now all I get is her back,
Which helps hide that I am in pain.
What a fool I was for so long
not seeing what I was doing,
Now I can see it all so clearly
but it is too little, too late,
So here I sit, in pain.
