Not My Idea

Missing you is not what I wanted
This is far from the best
But if you’re happy who am I to protest?

Maybe this is what we needed
Some space and a change
But it all seems so strange

There is a deep hole filled with pain
As the days grow longer
I find that the void grows stronger

It hurts to see you
But not spending time with one another
Is just plain worse than the other

I don’t know what to do or say
I just want this pain to end
And get back my best friend

But I fear it wont
So I’ll go on like this
Pretending nothing is amiss

Just to see you happy
I’ll throw away my pride
I’ll die a little on the inside
