The other day I thought of you and me
And how we tried so hard to make it
I will fake it, if I have to (as I've done for so long)
But I'm still not over,
Every smile and every laugh,
Every time I had to look past
Our shoulders to see if
Anyone was watching and
We quickly leaned in to
Smear our passions on each other
And you would smile and I would blush.
I miss the way that
You would talk and I would laugh at every stupid little joke you made,
And I miss the way that you would tell that I was the one for you and you were the one for me.
I did not lie,
I meant every word I said.
I never lied, you know well enough to know that I would never lie to you.
And how foolish of myself to think that you meant every word you said.
I just wanted to believe in you,
I just wanted to believe in us,
I just needed to believe in something more than hatred.
I still believe in us.
