If you knew
How much you put me through
How much I wish for you
How much I want you
How much I cry for you
Love you
Die for you
You’d love me back
You’d hold me like you would
You’d tell me there’s no such thing as crying
You’d take my tears away
You’d make the smile on my face come back
You’d fix me
You’d love me back
You’d whisper you love me in my ear
I’d kiss you and let tears trickle down my face
You’d keep them away
You’d never say goodbye again
You wouldn’t have left my side.
You would take this all away.
But that’s only if you knew.

This is about my boyfriend and our break-up. I was going through a hard time, and I turned to my writing.
