Face That

I gave her what she wanted

And that’s why I still hurt

I cared more strongly

I felt most deeply

And in the end

I’m the one that needed her

But she couldn’t fill that role

I’m still not sure I can face that

Facing that means moving on

And I’m not sure I can

Not without closure

Not without comment

Not without breaking this silence

This deafening roar of nothing

That our differences pushed us to

All the care and concern I have

Won’t hide the selfish need

I need to know she hears me

I need to know that she once cared

I need to know that she’s all right

And better off without me

It’s not easy to give up

Everything you ever wanted

Even when that everything

Wasn’t ever yours

So if she hears me

All I ask is that she say so

Please cut through this seperation

If only for a moment

Grant me the peace I don’t deserve

But badly need to find
