Maybe this is a poem. Maybe, but it was never worthy enough for you. Maybe this is 'thank you' Maybe it can't even come close.

A/N: I wrote this poem for a very close friend, I hope you like it!
Maybe this is a story
Or maybe this is a key
But this is probably just me
Pretending again.
I saw you, and now
I've seen everyone else,
And it's not like you were any different,
Except I knew you
And you knew me.
Most people would
Call this conversation,
But conversations
Are for people who have something to say.
I guess I would call this
My heart's repayment
For letting me come home.
I looked like a ghost then
When I wasn't quite
Sure if I was all dead
Or all alive.
That was when I knew you
Barely enough,
Just to the point where
I could still love everything about you.
Now I don't love you
But I forgive you
Because I accept every flaw.
Because you were so beautiful
I tried to smile
When you were laughing.
But the truth is
I would have run out of smiles.
But I knew you already
Solved that mystery, though.
When I tried to hide from everybody
I made sure
I left the map so you
Could find me too.
Maybe this is story about love, life, everything
Or the key to my soul.
Maybe this is me pretending
Everything's okay,
Or maybe this is a conversation,
My heart's repayment.
Maybe this is forgiveness,
Or maybe this is all my smiles.
Maybe this is that hidden map.
Still I think this is a secret
That I just can't whisper to you
Because the words cannot be invented.
