Why Can’t You See?
I shed my tears for you;
Teardrops pattering,
My heart flooded with grief.
I loved you so much,
Yet you never saw.

I lived my life for you,
You were my Prince,
My light, my hero.
I looked up to you,
I idolized you-
You were perfect.
I was your servant,
You had my life’s reins
Firm in your grasp-
I loved you so much,
Yet you never saw.

I trusted you always-
You were never wrong,
Oh my hero, my god.
Wherever you went, I followed-
Whatever you did, I did.
You led me down dark paths,
You twisted my heart.
I knew I was wrong,
But I couldn’t stop you.
I loved you so much,
Yet you never saw.

I watched you sink,
Deeper and deeper,
Swallowed by lies,
And hatred ever so dark.
I tried to turn back,
But you wouldn’t let go.
I tried to blind my eyes,
But I no longer could.
Yet I still hoped for you,
Never gave up-
I loved you so much,
Yet you never saw.

I saw through your lies,
I knew who you were.
I saw your purpose all along,
And I hated myself.
I tried to turn my back,
But I couldn’t.
My dagger, poised to strike,
Yet my hand couldn’t fall.
I saw the harsh truth,
But I never gave up hope.
I loved you so much,
Yet you never saw.

Now, you turn on me,
Cursing my treachery,
Hating my every breath.
I try to tell you-
Proclaim my love-
But you never hear.
I try to be truthful,
But you still hate me.
Now I can only look on
With tear-bedimmed eyes,
Still trying to tell you-
How much I’d loved you,
And how you’d never seen.

My heart torn in two,
My soul ripped forever.
Tears overcastting my eyes,
Your face haunting my dreams.
All we ever do is argue…
Because your hatred never dims,
But my love has yet to fail.
I love you oh so much,
Yet your eyes still don’t see.

I shed my tears for you;
Teardrops pattering,
My heart flooded with grief.

My love will never fail,
Yet your hatred never dies.

I loved you so much,
But now, I guess you’ll never know.
