One-Way Love

 

I feel like the love I have is unreciprocated

I feel like I am greatly unappreciated

How do you love someone who doesn’t love you

That thought runs through my mind and I don’t know what to do

People say to just let it go

I ask them if that is something they could show

I try to let it go but it seems to come right back

The will to keep trying is something that I lack

Some people say letting go is as easy as 1…2…3

Others say it is easy as climbing a really big tree

Part of me just doesn’t want to see her go

Even though from her there is no love to show

I know it is over and I should move on

A new beginning is started with a new dawn

Maybe someday I will find the one I could make my wife

One thing I will remember is not to make her my life

I love too hard and that is going to change

I know something like this is going to feel strange

I am used to loving a person with all of my heart

Now the next person is only going to get a part

I hate to do this but my heart is broken

I feel like I am floating in the middle of an ocean

I am tired of being hurt so I will hide behind my shield

I will stay protected until my heart is completely healed

No more argument, no fuss, no fight

I am going to remain within the light

I feel like an arrow is stuck in my heart

I feel that way because of how I played my part

I could have been everything; I could have been her dream

Now all I want to do right now is pull into my self and scream

Even though it hurts, all I want to do is love her every day

It hurts so much because this love is only going one way
