Hurts, Doesn't It?

It hurts
Doesn't it?
Falling for someone who will never feel the same love for you as you do for them?
Yeah.
It does.
You know they love you
They care about you.
They like you.
But, it'll never be the same love or caring feeling that they feel for the other person.
You'll never see the same sparkle in their eyes when they look at you.
You'll never feel the same warmth when they kiss you.
You'll never be on their mind late at night before they fall asleep.
They'll always be thinking of the other person.
The one they love.
It hurts
Doesn't it?
Wanting them to be happy, but knowing they'll never be as happy with you as they will be with them.
Caring about them so much that you soon realize they're better off in the other persons arms.
It hurts
Doesn't it?
Having to say goodbye and kissing them one final time.
Telling them you love them, and them suddenly unable to utter the same three words back.
Because, they don't love you.
That haven't yet,
And they never will.
It hurts
Doesn't it?
