Maybe…
maybe i am meant to be on my own
i project this image
of this loving couple
of making relationships look easy
but somehow it feels like a lie
and sometimes i turn away
because i think they will see the truth in my eyes
maybe i have been through things
not hard but unique
maybe i meant to be on my own
i have tried to love you
and i know i am a pain
i have tried my best to push away the clouds
and to stop the rain
i project this image
and people think it is all so true
if only they knew…
that i am crumbling inside
what i am and what do is never enough
i am haunted by a look of disappointment
and not one of love
