Today

Today, I sent you a message,
I tried to ensure I got there first,
I sent it early and bright.

I imagine you got one from him, too,
But I like to think that's not what you prefer,
Hence why we're talking right now.

I know it must be confusing,
And I damn myself for doing this,
But no one can help their feelings.

All those times he's let you down,
All those times he hurt you,
I've been there.

To pick up the pieces,
To heal your wounds,
To fix the hurt.

And it kills me inside,
I'd like oh so much to act,
Selfishly.

Because I know,
And it kills me,
If you weren't with him,
You'd be with me.
