My Shining Star

Nobody sees you the way I do
The great person that you are
And of all the people in my life
You were my shining star

But I have seen the pain you face
And all the tears you shed
I’ve seen all the cuts
And I’ve watched as they bled

I understand what you mean
When you say life is unfair
You said you’d always love me
Because you know I’m always there

But lately you’ve been distant
And I have missed you lots
I listened to you talking
And tried to connect the dots

You no longer hug me
Or help me when I’m down
You no longer say you love me
And you’re never around

I know this is my fault
But I need you back
Cause now I’m not just off it
I’ve lost sight of the track

I’m glad that you’re happier
But I am still depressed
I know i am the one that left
But I don’t love you any less

I am starting to realize
I need you helping me
I have lots of good friends
But you’re difference I can see

You’re not the greatest person
You aren’t my shining star
But I still need you
To help me be happy, like you finally are
