It's not the person that pains you
Instead, it's the things they do
It's how they gave up on you so easily
When they thought the exit was the convenient way
And when they said good bye but you hugged them long and tight
Now you're forced to wake up each day even if you don't want to.
It's not the person that you miss
Instead, it's the cherished memories
It's how they made you food when you were so down
And how they bought you flowers just because you love them
They were the nights you fell asleep under dark, glimmering skies
And woke up with the sun reflecting against their deep brown eyes.
It's not the person that you want
Instead, it's what they gave you
It's the safety they made you feel with their honesty and faithfulness
It's the big smiles they formed on your face whenever they call
And it's the inspiration they absent-mindedly gave you
All that they gave you, were only the ones that kept you going on.
Still, it's the person you love
It's the things they do
It's the cherished memories
It's what they had offered
You love all of them despite the hurting, missing, and longing
But do they love all of you?
Or do they still love all of you?
