Him...


I doodled your name in my notebook

While you took some notes about the Americans at war
 
I hid my feelings for the longest time 
 
So that you wouldn't walk out the door
 
But when the time came 
 
You chose her over me 
 
All because I wasn't true to you 
 
And you thought we could never be
 
I left the impression that friends was all we were
 
And that you should spend you time with her
 
While on the inside I was dying 
 
I was hurt way beyond repair
 
But I did this too myself
 
I acted like I didn't care
 
I told you that it was crazy 
 
When truth was that the feelings they were there
 
To this day I still hurt a little 
 
When I see you with another 
 
Maybe one day I'll finally let you know 
 
That I saw you as more than just a brother
