Not for you
I cry every time I say I love you,
For deep down, I know it's not true,
Those words that leave my trembling lips,
Are muted by the pain in my heart's eclipse.

I cry every time I say I love you,
For I'm haunted by the memories of what we knew,
The laughter, the joy, the moments we shared,
Are now nothing but a forgotten affair.

I cry every time I say I love you,
For I long for those days when love was true,
But now, those feelings are lost in time,
Leaving me with only memories to find.

I cry every time I say I love you,
For I know those words are now long overdue,
But I still hold on to the hope that one day,
You'll hear my call and come back my way.

So I cry every time I say I love you,
Hoping that one day you'll see the truth,
That the love in my heart is not yours to claim,
And I doubt if this love will once again set aflame.
