Why


Why?

I keep asking myself

Why did it have to come to this

I never thought he would ever leave

I should’ve known better

I can never be happy without ruining it

I should honestly just give up trying

All I ever wanted was for him to be happy

But I never thought it would be with her

Maybe I should just step back

Wish him the best and just get out of his way

She’s perfect for him and I can see that

But I can’t stop thinking about him

What it would be like if I was like her

Would he still be happy with me

Would I still be is main priority

Or would I still mess things up like before

I wish him the best with her

But I still wish I was the one to make him happy

I still wish it was just me and him

I just wish I was good enough for him
