All This Mess

Do you need to see the tears

before you understand just how I feel?

Will a complete breakdown suffice?

Because I’m gonna lose it after all this time

when I finally get to see her again

You don’t have to say that it’s not normal

how much I love and care about her

I’m pretty sure I know that

and I’m also pretty sure it doesn’t matter

It doesn’t change just how attached I feel

That girl is going places

I’d give up everything I have

to help get her there

and I find it so hard to believe

that you can’t see that

This is about far more than you and I

always has been, always will be

I want to see her grow and thrive

and someday have everything

and if it has to be from a distance, so be it

but that hurts far more than any rejection

you could ever dream of giving

I miss you, sure, but I miss her far more

than I think you can even comprehend

…and that’s the saddest part of all this mess
