Ok, so maybe I was wrong
I never was very strong
I can't pretend
You know I think this is true
This love I share with you
But when I leave, what will we do?
I can't pretend
I can't pretend that these promises and poems
Were all they made out to be
That they were true...I guess I lied
So when I said I'd love you forever
Maybe that's a year, or maybe never
It's too hard to comprehend
And I cannot pretend
I guess I'll be leaving here in June
A month that we know will come too soon
I'll fade away
I can't pretend
I'm gone for more than a year or two
No reason to come back except for you
But then again...
I can't pretend
So when I make up my mind
That this life we are living is wasting time
I hope you understand
That this was never in the plan
And when I tell you I am sorry, but I am true
That these feelings I felt for you
We temporary...
I cannot pretend
It's about time I get out of this town
It's about time I get away, start my life in a higher place
Where I can do everything I ever dreamed of...
And to come back here again
Is sounding more absurd
I can't pretend
This isn't final yet
It's not set in stone
After tomorrow comes I guess I'll know the truth
I'll know where we are going
And about the new chapter in my life
I hope you know I'll miss you
But we both have out own lives
I can't pretend
That there memories will never fade
I can't pretend
That I will still see you again
I can't pretend
That I know the facts about the future
All I know is that I might not be around
You might not see me around here,
In June I might be gone forever
I can't pretend
okay, i cant pretend-this made me cry. this is the most beautiful poem ever because of one thing: truth. its so freak truthful, you just cant know everything and sometimes things happen that werent meant to and they make you out to be a liar. i just hope you dont regret joel cuz regret is bad...just be happy, thats all i want for you. im sure that she will realize it wasnt meant to be if it doesnt work out...i did...either way dont stress over if you need me call, im, text, whatever, im here. and i'm going through/gone through similar situations...i love you to death (as a best friends and as you being my mentor) so im here bud, thanks for this poem...although not for me, you touched me with it.
