Happy

by Shantel   May 6, 2010


I wish I was a writer
So my words could touch your heart.
And I wish I was a painter
So I could give you a work of art.

I also wish I was an idea
So I could be what's on your mind.
And I wish I was your diamond;
I'd be precious and one of a kind.

And though I wish at night
To be what you're dreaming of,
I know I'm just a friend,
Someone you'll never love.

But if you look over your shoulder
And it feels like no one's there,
I promise I'll be beside you
As a friend who'll always care.

And no I'm not just saying this.
I swear I mean it all.
I just want what's best for you.
I never wanna see you fall.

'cause when I say I love you
I mean it truthfully.
I just want you happy,
Even if it's not with me.

    Thanks. It hurts knowing that the one you love doesn't return that feeling but I honestly want him to be happy even if I'm not.

    Wow, I am going through something very similar in my life right now. The choice between your own happiness and the happiness of the one you love. This honestly got me choked up. Fabulous work. 5/5 (: Thank you.
