Unrequited Love



I wasn't loved for the love I gave
I wasn't cared for the care I craved
I wasn't enough, for you, were brave
I wasn't there before your heart broke
I wasn't who you loved the most
I wasn't who you gave the cores
I wasn't the one, you shared your heart
I wasn't the one with whom it starts
I wasn't ready for the storm you brought
I wasn't ready for the sky to be dark
I wasn't capable of suffering your loss
I wasn't breakable until you left
I wasn't afraid to confront my fears
I wasn't expecting you to left me in tears
I wasn't given the right to ask you
I wasn't left with the right to save us
I wasn't, whose feelings were valued
I wasn't even your station's route
Because I was not the one you loved,
The one you cared...
