Bitter Man, Better Guy

I know I would have been a better guy in your thoughts.

I care and you know it. I always find time for you and you know it. The only problem is that I don't know how to show it.

Is physicality that important or do you just need the reassurance that I'll stay by your side? All I want is just to be in your thoughts, at least for a moment during the day. I want you to have a reminder of me.

I don't mind being a thought in you while on the other hand, I appreciate even just your mere existence. I don't mind, as long as I'm something for you.

Just so you know, you've never left my thoughts.

But have I ever crossed in yours?

I know I would have been a better guy in your heart.

As I don't need to occupy much space for all I want to be is inside it. But I will greatly appreciate if you open up more room in your heart as I've opened up all of mine for you.

There's a tiny problem though.

I've decided to open up my heart for someone who doesn't have enough room in hers to love someone like me.

I know I would have been a better guy for you to love.

For whatever love you would give, I'll give it back millionfolds.

But at the same time, I won't overwhelm you.

Unlike the way you overwhelm me whenever you speak about life and other things.

Your words speak like poetry as they flow through my ears, enveloping my mind and giving me a feeling of warmth, like a warm summer evening during a cold winter morning.

Then I snap back to reality. Realisations come as your words aren't meant for me. You were never beside me to begin with.

You are only as far as my eyes can see.

And all I see is you falling for someone

Just like I did.

I know I would have been a better guy for you.

Only if you realised.

The same way I realised amidst all of these things,

That you never loved me.
