I wish it had been us

I looked at you from afar

Those deep brown eyes,

Seemed so void yet warm 

You knew something was wrong.

I tried telling it to you boundless times

But you'd circumvent every time -

You said you'd talk about it later 

And I was left there all alone, feeling shattered.

Maybe we weren't just friends but something more...

Perhaps you didn't feel the same

Cuz actions speak louder than words,

Your efforts failed to meet that urge.

When the needs of the heart weren't met,

It was decided I'd move ahead

Cuz it's been a year and more,

My feelings have begun to lose hope

So let's ignore each other,

Pretend the other person doesn't exist

But deep down we both know...

It wasn't supposed to end like this.
