When I Knew

I’d never forget when I saw your tears

That’s how I knew the end was near

That’s when my world was completely destroyed

That’s how the pain beat down my soul

What did you do to receive all this pain?

I hate seeing you cry but my words are in vain

I can’t have you close, I can’t keep you away

I wish I gone from your life and this place

It’s hard because I know that you want me to stay

But my dear, I can’t, even though I feel the same

That you deserve more is so hard to accept

I don’t know if I’m right, this just doesn’t make sense

That light in your face goes right to my heart

It causes me pain, it would never be mine

I know you deserve someone that will give you his love

I know my dark soul should never be yours

Why is it that I dream with you next to me?

Holding my hand, but setting me free

I don’t want to hurt you but I know that I will

Please just forget about the love that we feel

My heart is so full of pain and regrets

I wish I could take it and throw it away

He makes it his duty to not let me forget

That next to your heart he will never be safe
