im just another backup

no matter how much I will it to be,
I just cant see me with somebody like you...

you are just so perfect in every way
I can talk to you as if there is no one else around,
and when I am with you I feel so much better.

but you have a boyfriend
and Im just some guy who didnt know what he had...
now I miss you, and you say you miss me,

But I know that I am just some guy
who needs you more then he cares to admit...
when I say something,
you think Im joking. if only half the time you were right.

well I have news for you.
I AM SERIOUS!!
and for the first time in a long time I know what I want...

...its you...
but we both know I cant have you...not like that

yeah we both know I love you
yeah, I tried to tell you sooner
but the last day, the day when
I was going to tell you how I feel
you werent there

and now Im just some guy.
another one to add to the list of people
who love you

yeah Im just another backup plan
yeah, just another guy that loves you
and always will
and I hate it

yeah I hate it how much I love you
yeah I love you and I hate it
how Im just another guy on the list
yeah, just another backup plan

I know its unlikely
I know its stupid
but just in case you decide to change your mind...
I love you

and just in case you dont know
I would do anything, anything
to make you happy

even get out of your life
just to make it easier for you
after all...we both know
that Im just another fucking backup.

something I wrote a while ago and finally decided to submit...I wasnt all that happy when I wrote it, but it's the first long piece of poetry I wrote, and I like it, and I hope you do to.
I wrote this was just after I arrived in the forest, and I was starting to become clear about things.

Kuro no Black Says:

...
Is this about someone?
It's really good, I can feel the pain of it, and I can kind of understand...

Taka The Wanderer Says:

wow.
You know how to put your feelings into words....
It IS really good methinks...
Interestingly tho, halfway through reading it, I thought "hey, this would make really good lyrics to a song...." (A new song to be composed and written that is.)

You know I like this one, Da...
