How loud do I have to scream?

How obvious do I have to be?

How quickly did you make me fall

Yet make me better at the same time?

No one else has ever been able to make

My demons vanish so fast

And yet you will probably

Never know the amazing way

You have eternally changed me.

I miss your face when you turn away

Your jokes when you fall silent

But most of all, I just miss you right now.

Because since you've been with her,

You haven't been spending time with me.

Forgetting our in-jokes, our routines

Because I wasn't quick enough

And you chose her

Don't mistake me - I think she's great

It's just she's not me.

But she makes you so happy

And that is far more important to me

Than finding a way to tell you how I feel.

So I'll smile, feelings stay hidden,

Be the best friend I can possibly be

Be there for you every minute of every day

And remember at the end of the day there's always hope.
