One in a Million
There are only a few who will stand by your side,
Who share in your pain, through life’s rough ride,
Who won’t leave you alone when storms arise,
But walk with you through lows and highs.
There are only a few who will stand by your side,
Who share in your pain, through life’s rough ride,
Who won’t leave you alone when storms arise,
But walk with you through lows and highs.
I never knew the weight of love,
Until it slipped away above.
The days we shared, they felt so light,
Now I’m lost, alone at night.
I never knew how deep I’d fall,
Until your absence stood so tall.
In every breath, in every tear,
Your memory lingers, ever near.
Red roses bloom, a symbol of our love so true,
Their fragrance entices, capturing hearts anew,
But roses have thorns, sharp and sly,
Wounding the soul with a single try.
The petals fall, scattered in time,
Memories fade, love lost like a rhyme.
No matter how much I beg and I plead,
You won’t return, ignoring my need.
Was it my fault, or did you change?
Is this the end, are we estranged?
I’m here for you when you need me near,
But only when you choose, my dear.
I can’t be with you all the time,
Our love is stuck in this silent rhyme.
I tell the world we’re only friends,
But deep inside, I can’t pretend.
I stay too close but far enough,
Hoping one day this love’s enough.
What’s the point in holding on,
When the dream is already gone?
The road ahead is far too long,
And love can’t always make it strong.
I know deep inside I’ll never be,
The one you need or deserve from me.
There’s nothing here, no solid ground,
To build upon or stick around.
It may seem like nothing’s changed,
Like everything’s just the same.
Each day passes by, like every other,
But deep inside, it’s not like before.
Take a closer look into my eyes,
And maybe then you’ll realize,
There’s something growing I can’t hide,
A feeling I’ve tried to push aside.
My love may not be obvious to you,
It hides deep where you can’t see through.
Buried in the corners of my soul,
So well-kept, I lose control.
It might seem like I’m cold as ice,
But inside, I’m breaking twice.
Tormented by what’s come to pass,
By the love I can’t outlast.
Hush, don’t ask me how I’ve been,
With those empty words, pretending to care.
You left, and now you want to know if I’m okay?
It’s just something to say, when you don’t know what else to share.
I’m the one left behind, shattered, while you walk away,
What I wish for, what I’ve been waiting for,
Might seem like a dream, a distant shore.
Looking for someone, though I don’t know who,
And not sure when I’ll find them too.
I don’t know why we met,
I never thought I’d love you yet.
But now you’re here, right by my side,
And my world has changed inside.
