Even Though*

Even though the moments passed me by,
I still can't turn away.
I still remember the look in you eyes,
As you turned and walked the other way.

Even though I still sometimes cry,
You'll never see me shed a single tear.
I'll keep a smile upon my face,
Everytime you are near.

Even though a part of me hates you,
The other part will always tell me no.
Sometimes I wonder,
Will I ever let go?

Even tholugh I'm confused,
I can't help but stick around.
No one to catch me,
Before I hit the ground.

Even though we still do talk,
I can only be your friend.
There will be a day,
When all this pain will end.

Even though you make me smile,
It makes me want you more.
But that smile goes away,
Once you walk out my door.

Even though I get so mad at you,
I'm always the one to give in.
I try not to let it happen,
But you seem to always win.

Even though I want to say good-bye,
I never go through with it.
I can say it all I want,
But I will never commit.

Even though you still stick around,
I should give up on you.
You do not care about me,
It's time I look in your point of view.
