I loved you

I loved you even though you went away. 
I loved you no matter how many times you told me you couldn't stay. 
I loved you when i was all alone. 
I loved you through the pain when you were gone.
You went to her again and again. 

I never even had a chance, you see. 
She was your love, not me. 

Time after time, I tried to make you mine.
No matter how hard I tried, you left me hanging on the line. 
I think I can say I finally caught on. 
I think I can say I can finally be strong. 

I never even had a chance, you see
She was your love, not me.

I try to walk away and yet you ask me to stay. 
I have a feeling we both know how this will end
So I ask myself, do I give in to you and your selfish ways
or do i leave with my diginity in tack
and promise myself to never come back? 
Only time and my foolishness will tell if I prevail.
