I see you walking down the street
And in my soul I quietly weep
For you never notice me on the corner
But when I see you my heart gets warmer
I see you go home
And yet you’re all alone
I wonder to myself
How can that be?
So handsome but it hurts
Because I can’t be with you it makes my life worse
I long for the day
That we can be together
I long for the moment
That can change my life forever
Somehow, someway
I found the courage to say
Hello to you on the street
You passed right on by and now continually I weep
I wrote you a letter every day
To show you that my love was true
And here to stay
But you never returned a single one
So now my life is over and done
My one true love is you
My only attempt at a perfect life was you
And now that you are gone
My life is done
I grab the car keys
And drive to an empty bridge
All that is in the car
Is me, my heart, and this
I’m going to crash through the barrier
Like my attempt to make you love me
To have myself stand out in the crowd
But I guess this is the only way I can do that
Here’s the bridge
Oh my god! How can I get this poem out!
I watch you from a better place now
And it seems that you still don’t realize it.
But wait, what is this I see?
You’re visiting my grave at the cemetery?
And what is this you hold in your hand?
A piece of paper?
Mind as well be a grain of sand.
I try to look away in pain,
But something brings me back again.
You openly say …
“ I’m so sorry that this happened to you.
All I wanted to tell you was how much I loved you.
I’m sure you’re in a better place now,
where I hope soon to be,
so I can truthfully tell you how much you mean to me.
I saw you walking down the street everyday,
and when you finally said hello my heart skipped a beat,
but I had no words to say.
But every time I saw you waiting on the corner,
my heart got warmer.
I longed for the day,
that we could be together,
that one final day that could make my life better.
And on the news I saw a story,
as I wrote a letter to you.
A love letter to show you that my feelings were true.
All the letters you sent me were wonderful,
however I only got them yesterday,
something in the mail must have
gotten messed up some way.
I was finally writing back,
showing you how much you mean to me.
When I saw a story on the news
that I could not believe.
I found it a shame that a girl killed herself over
unrequited love,
and I thought to myself how wonderful it is that I got my
angel from above.
But then when they said there was a letter written in the car,
but they couldn’t make out who it was to,
I realized that the girl in the car,
was you.
Now I sit here,
Afraid of my love for you
But I realize now
That there is nobody else but you
In this letter I hold in my hand,
Is proof to everybody that I am your man
And in this other hand I have
A gun that can make me happy again “
Now we both sit down in heaven,
Happy that our love is here
And now we hold eachother dear
And we look onto the world for unrequited love
And strike those with the one that they are meant to be with
And this was my attempt.
