Couldn't downplay my feelings
even when you were no where around
no where to be found
and had no clue
I was still loving you.
See, I was loving you when you weren't even looking
Correcting every doubter whoever mistook it
for something else
Defending what we had when there was no one else to
Not even you.
I love you in a way that shouldn't even exist.
My love has no conditions and is limitless.
And it is not predicated on your loving me too
But I know you do
I started believing this was more of a curse than a blessing
Began loving you so hard I swear I was making God jealous and
I began letting outsiders in
who
started to convincingly undo
the thought processes that led me to believe the words you spoke were true.
I began to second and third guess your actions too
Cloak and dagger operations I did ensue
Finding absolutely nothing new
Ultimately causing a rift between us
Damaging what we both once thought was so rare
Simply because I began to compare
Our love to something others never knew.
So if it's in fact true,
you are to me and I am to you
the exception to every rule...
When it's the right time
I'll be seeing you.
