Parker Griffith - Unhappy ending

I feel the tiny bittersweet droplets flow
The salty taste fills my mouth and my mind.
You know I knew you once, way back when.
Though it troubles me now, it's hard to find.
I wallow through my own sad sorrow,
With no desire to steal, break, or borrow.
You haunt me daily, and nightly still
I search hopelessly for anything to fill
This hole in my chest,
Which I myself ripped open.
That which was torn from my flesh,
To leave me bloodied and broken.
And here we are still, weeks gone by
I can never forget you, even if I try.
And though I know that my words
Will probably never reach you,
How can I just sit back?
I must try to get through.
The err in your perspective,
On this particular scene
Is vulgar and gross
And slightly obscene.
I cared for you more than I cared for me,
Which doesn't mean much,
But you know what I mean.
There wasn't a thing in the world
That I wouldn't have done,
To just make you smile.
To just make you have fun.
I loved nothing more
Than just to hear you laugh,
Even if it came at the expense of my own behalf.
You meant the world to me
Over and over again.
You could've looked anywhere,
But not found a happier man.
I would have died for you,
If you'd just asked me to.
But I would've sooner lived,
If only to see your face.
And I know that right now it seems,
You definitely need your space.
But please hear what I say,
That you weren't a mistake,
And this may not have been fate,
But I cherished every day.
