I pretend

I pretend my love for you is gone,
I pretend it slipped away
I pretend that I don't need you,
not now or any day
I pretend my heart's not broken,
I pretend that I don't cry
I pretend that I can lie without you in my life
I pretend that I don't miss you,
not your eyes and not your touch
I pretend I never loved you,
when really I miss you so much
