It Tears Me Apart

It tears me apart to be so close to you
It tears me apart to not be able to hold you or touch you or stroke your hair
    It tears me apart to know that your heart does not and will not belong to me



 It wears me out to try over and over again knowing that I will not succeed 
It hurts to know that you dont want to know, that you dont need to know, but so I insist
      It tears me apart to hear you laugh, to see you smile and to know that the person  whom you are with is not I 
     It tears me apart to have realized too late that I had many chances with you and I ignored them
