i'm better near to you.

he and i, had something beautiful
but so dysfunctional, it couldn't last
i loved him so
but i let him go,
cause i knew, he'd never love me back.

(such pain as this, shouldn't have to be experienced
i'm still reeling from the loss, still a little bit delirious)

near to you,
i am healing, but it's taking so long.
cause though he's gone,
and you are wonderful,
it's hard to move on.
yet, i am better near to you.

you and i, have something different
and i'm enjoying it, cautiously
i'm battlescared, and i'm working oh so hard
to get back to who i used to be

he's disappearing, fading, steadily
and i'm so close to being yours
won't you stay with me, please

i only know, that i am better near to you.
