I sit here with thoughts my own
and thoughts stolen from him.
He doesn't want me.
He did, no longer
I still want him.
I still love him...
so much I could have flown.
A Pheonix, perhaps.

With love's wings I could have soared
but I'll none of that now
my wings are clipped
I'd have flown, never away
I want to
but I can't
I'm his friend, so I can't leave him.
I can't even hate him.

Whoever it is he has chosen, be joyous
I don't hate you.
I envy you for being loved.
I have to.
There's no one left to love me.
So do me a favor Rogue, when with him
don't just be you.
Be ... us.
