I wish I'd met you sooner
Because maybe, you'd see me differently
More than just someone
That talks to you from time to time
More than just a guy who listens
To whatever you have to say
I want to be the guy
You turn to when you're sad
Who holds you when you cry
And makes your loneliness disappear
But even more do I want to be the one
You trust with all your secrets
And shares in your happy moments
That brightens your world
Sadly I'm just some guy to you
Not the one you want around
You lead me to believe
I'm not good enough for you
Because we've never talked face to face
Yet you told me things
You share with few others
I've always wondered why
We never talked in person
But I may never know the truth
'Cause just talking to you
Makes me feel like I'm not enough
And I can't take that feeling anymore
It's tearing me apart
"I want to be the guy
You turn to when you're sad
That holds you when you cry"
-> "that" should be "who"
"But even more do I want to be the one
You trust with all your secrets
And that shares in your happy moments"
-> the last line does not need the "that". Should be "and share in your happy moments"
"Sadly I'm just some guy to you
Not the one you want around
You lead me to believe
I'm not good enough for you"
->Really powerful lines. Stood out for me.. until I read the last lines.
"'Cause just talking to you
Makes me feel like I'm not enough
And I can't take that feeling anymore
It's tearing me apart"
-> Great ending :)
It's a beautiful piece. Well-written!
Keep writing 5/5 :)
