Ignorance is Bliss
You called it delusion
I called it hope
We fell in love for one night
The next, I broke

I asked for help
You quickly said no
Who would waste effort
On someone like me?

You called it friendship
I called it us
We never saw eye to eye
Our souls never touched

I named you my rose
You named me your sunflower
But shouldn’t I have known
They don’t belong in the same bouquet

Friends come
And friends go
You didn’t stay
I never let you go

I made you happy (I hope)
You made me anxious (I know)
How did I ever
Fall in love
So hard

I strived to be your everything
To you it was overwhelming
Now I can only hope
To fall in love half as hard
Love just as much
Be left unscarred

There are glimpses of you...
