title : they say that time will dry the tears
I miss the way it used to be. I miss the way we used to be. I don`t like this change. I don`t like it at all. – when we can get it back, maybe we`ll make it right - There`s a few things on my mind and I need to share it. Even though you probably won`t take the time to read this, I need to explain how I feel. Is it worth my time to try if it doesn`t seem like you care? Should I waste my time trying so hard? Why do you always make it hard for me to spend time with you? Why can`t you come to me? Why do I always have to go to you? Why act different now when we`ve been like this for so long? Why make me come back home crying everyday? Are you really worth my tears? – my only question is, do you miss me when i`m gone? - I care a lot about our friendship. But I can`t seem to tell if you`re fiction or fact. I want this to be a thing that lasts. I want to know this is through thick and thin, for better or worse. – i don`t want to beg you to treat me like you need to - I want you to prove you care, not just in your words but in your actions. Prove that this isn`t a waste, so that I`m not just hurting for no reason. I want you to know I want this taken seriously. I want you to know I care so much. I want you to know that I want you to always be here. I miss the way we used to talk, the way we used to laugh, the way we used to joke. – the promises you made about coming through - I miss the way we used to be. – i`ll give my tomorrows for one yesterday - I hate this change. I hate what`s it`s done. – every time I think about it, it tears me up inside - I don` think the damage is fixable. I don`t think I can go on like this anymore. But the thing is, I can`t let go of the memories. I can`t let go of our talks or our laughs. I can`t let go of the way our friendship makes me feel. I can`t let go of you no matter how much I want to. - i don`t have the patience to keep on waiting - When I think of you, I`ve got tears streaming down my face. When I see you, I lose all my regrets and for get all the pain and suffering. And no matter what, I want you here and I`ll never let go. I have, uncountable times, fallen for you. That`s probably the reason why I won`t let go. But I`ve learned feelings can go away. Maybe I should try to make this end. I`ve already learned you`d never think of me in that way. I`ve hoped, I`ve wished and now, I`ve lost all faith. – i`m brokenhearted and i can`t let you know and i won`t let it show - I can`t pretend anymore. – but that`s the way it`s gotta be until i get over you
