I’m Not Supposed To

I thought I’ll never meet someone like you

I thought I’ll never want you

I was wrong, thinking I’m in control

Believing I’ll never fall

I’m not supposed to wish you were here

And to long to draw you near

I shouldn’t feel so down

All the times when you’re not in town

I’m not supposed to care

Yet I’m dreaming of all that we could share

I know that I don’t own you, and I’ll never will

So my anger when you’re with her, I have no right to feel

I’m not supposed to imagine

What you do and where you’ve been

I shouldn’t show you what I feel

I’m in pain, but I’ll just wait until it heal

In the beginning, we had an agreement

“We’re only best friends without love attachments.”

There will never be an “us,” that’s our destiny

So I wake up to face the reality.
