He Never Knew
He Never Knew
I wait
Knowing I shouldn’t
I anticipate
If only I wouldn’t
My ears listen for the sound of his steps
My eyes wait for a glimpse of his shadow
I know I should stay far
But that I am unable to
I hurt
I whimper
The eyes well up
69);">He doesn't know
What I go through
How I swallow the agony
The pain and the if onlys
The questioning and the self doubt
He doesn't know the nights I lay awake
Wishing it was different
And that is what keeps me going
Today tomorrow and the day after
That he never knew how I cared
That he didn’t know how I loved
