Happier without me

by OneLastKissBeforeIGo   Aug 30, 2007


We were enemies turned lovers.
Then lovers turned to friends.
Now. We are nothing.
I remember when I used to make you laugh.
Even when you were miserable.
Around me you always laughed.
But in the back of my head.
I knew. I wasn't the only one.
The only one you said "I love you." to.
She knew you longer than I.
So...I guess that made it alright...right?
Her lover knew as well as I
That she was in love with you.
Only time would tell.
I knew you loved her.
You denied it.
You said. "She's my best friend. I could never see her like that."
But that day...that horrible day...that you got into that accident.
That day you were in the hospital.
I lived across the country. She was there by your side.
You still denied it. You still denied your feelings for her.
I knew. I knew I shouldnâ??t have grown attached to you.
I knew it would only end badly for me if I did.
But I still did.
I loved you.
But that day.
That you left me.
I knew.
It was her.
I knew.
You finally realized.
That your feelings for me.
Were for her.
You realized that every time we talked...
It always ended with her.
You said you just couldnâ??t handle the distance.
But that wasn't the truth.
You loved her.
You thought I would never see.
That she was the one that wanted to be me.
You gave her that chance.
When I asked...
If you were happy...
Now that you are without me...
Your response.
It killed me.
You told me.
That you were.
You were happier.
With her. Than you were with me.
You planned a future with me.
Until you realized.
That it really wasnâ??t for me.
It was for her.
And now you see that because you chose her.
You've lost me.
She's lost her sister.
You've lost your friends.
And she's lost her friends.
The friends you both shared.
The sister she loved.
They all left.
To be with me.
They knew.
That really.
It was me.
That was supposed to be...
In you're heart.
Because you chose her.
You lost everything you ever loved.
All because you hurt me.
Devastated me.
And now.
You regret it.
You regret choosing her.
But its too late.
You already lost me the day you told me.
You were happier without me.
