Will pour their love into someone
Who doesn’t feel the same,
Leaving their cup half empty.
Being left in a place of darkness and despair,
Yearning for that reciprocated love.
Wishing that person would understand your perspective
That you still love and care for them
The same way you did before,
Simply because no one compares to them.
Hoping they’d see why you couldn’t stay in the end,
Because of how empty they made you feel
Even when it was just you two.
