» Poem: It's All for the Best
It's All for the Best

I let you look inside...
Thought you passed the test,
And you took my heart,
Saying it was best....

I said, I loved you...
I let you brake my heart,
I got too close...
We never got to start...

You stood for a moment,
Then walked away...
A letter supposed to be,
What you couldn't say.

And I despised you,
Because I refuse to hate,
Your apology never came,
But even then, it was too late.

Somehow, I forgave you,
And I let it be lost,
And I tried to help you,
No matter what the cost,

I saw the pain,
Lingering in your eyes,
And saw how you thrived,
On self-deceptive lies...

I wouldn't believe it,
Because you hurt me so,
But I let you keep my heart,
I didn't even know....

Somehow, I loved you,
Saw what you couldn't,
Somehow, I looked past,
What, I guess, I shouldn't...

All over again,
Falling for you...
Exactly the thing,
I shouldn't do...

But you'll never know,
How I truly feel,
I guess I'm content,
With what is real...

I don't want lose,
What I've gained,
So I'll keep my,
Passions chained...

You are one of the best friends,
That I've got,
Because you can be,
Everything I'm not.

And I trust you,
But only so far,
And I'll have to accept you,
For what you are.

So my heart is chained,
Inside my chest,
Because, even though, I'll never tell you,
It's all for the best.
