Please Understand

Can you handle me seeing someone else?
If to be near me, will you share me?
What other offer can I give?
What other choice do you leave me?

What would you rather I have done?
Let you go on thinking you were the only one?
I'd be lying and you don't deserve that?
Now I can't take the pain back.

You can still love me.
My relationship here my not be ment to be.
I still love you,
But lying is something I cannot do.

Did you know I couldn't think?
The earth under me seemed to sink.
I hated doing that to you,
But the truth is something I had to do.

I want you to see,
You can't lose me.
I'm with you always,
Even on your darkest days.

How can you begrudge me happiness?
I would do you no less.
Had it been you instead of me,
I would have cried, but let it be.

I want you to live in joy,
to me you are not a toy.
But to you I'm a peice of art,
Not a real person with a heart.

I have needs too.
Just the same as you.
I need arms to hold me tight.
I need a face to dream about at night.

I see your words as black as coal,
And with them I feel your very soul.
I can feel your pain like no one else can,
Put please, Please try to understand.
