Unspoken Words

I miss your face
 I miss the shadow of my former self
 I miss the way you taste
 I miss that self-deluded little child I was
 I long to feel your touch
 I long to feel that rush again
 I long to love that much
 But I have no sense of it all
 I had but one escape
 To save myself from you and all this
 I had one choice to make
 Even though it tore me in two
 Those three words I wish I had said
 Those three words I never meant to feel
 Those three words I tried so hard to deny
 (are left unspoken)
 I cry so hard
 I wish it didn't have to be like this
 I fall with my head in my hands, my tears are streaming
 but I had to say goodbye
 I know it's better this way
 even though it hurts so much inside
 I know I'll never be the one that you needed
 And so wounded is my pride
