Lost and found

I saw you, when you wouldn't see,
I cried inside, when you had to leave,
I laughed, I lied, what's on your mind?
I told you once, one time, one time.
I held your hand, and you held mine
but I could feel, what you lost inside
I gave you comfort, on the cloudy days
I saw you try, to push it away
I found a way, to make things right
but I failed, I think, I think I might.
I lived, I died, looking at those eyes,
I watched, I cried, when they said goodbye.
You would have changed, in a heartbeat-
but there was something much larger, it was an instinct.
You looked at me, as I looked away
You asked me why, and I found my way
You cried the tears, that I knew were there
but you wouldn't accept that it was fair
I lost what I had found before,
but losing you, would let me see
the person that I want to be
I'm not lost,
I'm not found,
I'm just me..
and that's the only person
I will ever be.
