Have to let him go

I know it can't ever be

I know I can't give into my feelings

It will just end in pain and misery

I know this

But why do I keep finding myself going back to thinking about him

I have to lock those feelings away

Never let them show

But every time I look into those chocolate brown eyes

My heart brakes just a little

Because I know it can never be

I have to let him go

It will never work out

It never does

So I will have to settle for staring from a distance

Wondering what it could have been like.
