"Something About Us."

You ever get the feeling that you only want something because you can't have it? I do.

Not to sound conceited or pompous... But I really can have anyone I want. All I have to do is win them over with my words and confidence. People really like confidence, just because they're all so insecure they admire it in other people.

And because of this, I knowingly manipulate people and gain their admiration. I toy with their emotions and lead them on. Why? Perhaps because I like to bring out the passion in others. Perhaps because I'm sadistic. Or because... Well... Who doesn't like that kind of attention?

I do it because I can. I do it because I can't make any profound connections unless people are seeking more than friendship from me. I do it because I'm alone and because people lend themselves to me and allow me to use them in this manner. I do it because people can't accept the fact that love is not ALWAYS an option. I do it because I'm a terrible person.

But. There is ONE person I can't have. Not because I haven't gained their admiration or won them over with my charm... But because their heart already belongs to someone else.

Do you believe it is possible to love two people at once?

I did all the work. "And from your lips [ I ] drew the hallelujah."

I've heard many a sweet word from you. The kind that indicate I matter as much as he does. The kind that tease and taunt and lead me to believe that I matter more. That I'm at par.

You've said, "Thank you for being you."
You've said, "I worry about you too much. I care about you too much. I love you too much."
You've said that you can make me happy and that you wish you'd met me sooner, that you wish things were different.

But they can't be. Everything happens for a reason. I came into your life this late... Because we weren't meant to be. You have what you were looking for and I just added a little spice. I was just a crush... We both just got a little carried away.

I only want you because I can't have you. And you only want me because you can't have me.
I manipulated you. I made you want me.

But everything happens for a reason. And here we are. I'm going to have to learn to fall out of love with you... And you will have to learn to go on with your life the way it is. You will learn to be satisfied with what you have. Why would you want to change anything about your current relationship... When there's nothing wrong with it? You were only lead a stray temporarily. You were manipulated. It's not your fault.
