The summer I tried to love myself I found myself loving you instead.
I found myself wondering why we ever left those cool October nights in the past.
I found myself wondering where the love had gone.
I found myself.
I found myself in you. I felt like nothing but an echo of you.
A silent scream that no one could hear.
Our love such a soft whisper in the wind.
Something so faint that not a soul recognized.
Something so long ago that you've forgotten what we shared.
What we had.
You've got a girlfriend no. Someone to share those cool October nights with. Someone to share your secrets with. Someone to share those stars with.
The summer I tried to love myself I found myself loving someone who didn't love me back.
