You
You've mixed me up inside
You inside-out-ed my heart
And I know you don't care

I felt the piercing arrow
It went through my right shoulder
But it missed my heart
Just barely.

I'm sorry it can't be
I'm sorry you won't give me
Any chance at all
Best wishes in all your aspirations

I tell them I don't care
That you don't care
And I laugh it off
But I lied

But I also promised myself
When I took the hint
That I wouldn't bother you
Because that never works

But the pain was real
And it's still not healed
But I'll be okay
I have to.

Even though we don't know each other
You've done me worlds of good
Strengthening my self-control
Not to look, or shiver, or talk.

So I'm sorry.
And I'm grateful.
And maybe you're not
And maybe you don't care
And maybe you'll never even know
Never read this.

But maybe you will.
And maybe I'll get over you
And maybe we'll be friends
Or maybe you'll like me back.
(But you won't)

You could have been so much worse
Thank you.
You could have been so much better
I'm sorry.
I could have been more logical
And realized the chances
And left you alone.
But I didn't.
But I will.

With this promise,
I ask one thing
Give me the same peace.
And leave me also.

Thank you.
I'm sorry.
