You Don't Love Me

You don't love me, I know.
Even if you tell me a hundred times that you do, I know you don't.
Sad, but that's what I know to be true.
Even if you negate my statement, your eyes say otherwise, and that's when I know.
Your eyes speak a lot of pain, sorrow so deep that love got buried down with it.
You may not know how to feel it anymore but you act like you do.
Sadness is deep seated within you, and in every pinch, love goes away from you.
The wrinkles around your eyes are strands of unhappiness that has enveloped your whole being.
Every line is an evidence of every tear, of every sleepless and restless nights.

I don't blame you, your life is who you are and who you would have been is a different story.
I wish I knew the other side of you, the one who could dream big.
The one who would welcome the good things out of the most painful ones.
Wake that side of you, please.
You are missing a lot because you thought life has been hard on you.
Did you ask yourself if you have been easy on life?
I don't think you have taken to appreciate the picture outside the hell hole that you thought you will always be at.
Go out, smell the air as it blows toward the sea.
Explore the possibilities of happy thinking.
Let it unfold before you the way it should.
Do not force life to die on you...you are the only one who has to steer your ship...not me...not anyone.
And when you can finally navigate your life towards your true north, maybe, just maybe, you will learn to love.
And maybe, just maybe, you will set your eyes on me...and maybe, just maybe, I will still be there.

You don't love me, I know....but let me love you now..
Let me help you rise the sails with my stronger heart.
And when you are sailing on the high seas, let the sun kiss your soul.
Let that ray of sunlight be the reason for you to smile, let me be that sunlight.
Let me see the good side in you, and if I get lucky, the best in you will finally show.
And maybe, just maybe, I will love you more.

Those eyes, let me see them smile.
Let loose, embrace life with open arms, because you are not alone in your pain.
Embrace the pain, it will liberate you in the end.
And even if you cant love me, your smile will do it for you.
Because when you can be truly happy, that's when I can tell myself I really did love you well.
Add more lines to your eyes, lines that would say you have smiled already.
When that time comes, do not love me, love yourself.
You don't owe me anything, but you owe YOU!

You don't love me, I know...but I am perfectly fine!
You don't and will never love me, don't worry, I will still shine.
Just love yourself, that's for the best!

So love me not please!
