Perhaps 'cause I can't have you...

There's a reason I said I'd be happy alone. It wasn't 'cause I thought I'd be happy alone. It was because I thought if I loved someone and then it fell apart, I might not make it. It's easier to be alone, because what if you learn that you need love and you don't have it? What if you like it and lean on it? What if you shape your life around it and then it falls apart? Can you even survive that kind of pain? Losing love is like organ damage. It's like dying. The only difference is death ends. This? It could go on forever

On the radio this morning

They played our song

And I thought about the good times

And I wondered what went wrong

Miscommunication?

'Cause you had no faith in me?

Lack of inspiration?

Or maybe, maybe it's just me

Maybe it's just me...

There's life that surrounds me, but still I cannot see

I just can't make my heart fall for beauty endlessly

I don't know what I'm feeling

It's not right, it can't be

I try to find someone to blame

But maybe, maybe it's just me

Maybe it's just me...

Maybe you were right to find your way out of my life

You found comfort elsewhere while I held on way too tight

But I find no reason why I can't be satisfied

Perhaps 'cause I can't have you...

-Ingram Hill "Maybe it's Me"

I cannot seem to get his face out of my mind. I'm exhausted tired, but when I sleep, I dream of him. And as much as I was ready to be done with school for the semester, now there is no real distraction... so I'm left here to my own thoughts and this town that is filled with reminders of him.

I wonder if he thinks about me anywhere near as much as he is on my mind. I know he has his distractions, but there have got to be things that remind him of me.... 

Part of me is so thrilled to get out of this town and the constant reminder of him and his choice. But at the same time, I am afraid of letting go and actually moving on. I've done it before and I know moving on is good and that I will very likely find a guy who treats me better and actually wants to be with me. But in this moment and many others like it, I feel left alone here in the pain with the fear that if I move on, I'll be settling.
