Don't Want

I don't want to know what you do together, but as long as you're happy, that's all the matters.
What you do with her makes me wonder;
'What if that was me?'
It would be nice, but too surreal.
I'm happy and sad
And you love her with a dying passion
But I don't want to know that.
If I ask, it's okay
Because my imagination is bored
But please don't tell me about her.
I don't want to know.
I'll smile as much as I can
And be as pleasant as I can
And do all I can to keep her happy,
But it isn't for her.
It's for you.
Because I don't want to know what you do together while I'm not there.
It isn't like I don't care.
It's that I don't want to be anymore if a burden than I already am.
Mistake after mistake.
I almost thought I had my chance.
But I knew it wouldn't be me any time soon.
That's why I don't want to know.
I can't imagine myself with you.
And I think it's time that I take a break.
All connections with you are slowly hurting me
But maybe it's hurting in a good way.
Because it might be better if I leave you to have your fun
With her.
Love is a strong feeling.
And I know that I won't properly experience it.
But if the definition of love is what I think it is;
I love you.
But
I don't want to know what will happen after that.
