(Verse 1)

Writing letters to faces unseen

Pouring my heart out, it's just for me

Can't carry diaries through life's changes

Seven moves deep, I'm just that strange

I thought I had a memory so fine

But some memories slip through the lines

Recently found posts from a blog I'd sealed

In a moment's rush, embarrassment revealed

(Chorus)

But I remember the heartbreak like yesterday

Each punch in the gut, it just won't fade away

When words are spoken, feelings betray

Leaving me stranded in a love's disarray

(Verse 2)

That sinking feeling, deep in my core

When conversations reveal there's nothing more

They're not seeking what I am, it seems

Lost in their search, chasing other dreams

I find it easier to say "I love you" than "I admire"

Admiration's rare, it sets my soul on fire

Once I hold it, it's hard to let go

Only disappointment can make it so

(Chorus)

But I remember the heartbreak like yesterday

Each punch in the gut, it just won't fade away

When words are spoken, feelings betray

Leaving me stranded in a love's disarray

(Bridge)

I've crafted a persona where everything's fine

To not be a burden, to toe the line

But in this facade, I've swallowed my pain

Accepted the intolerable to avoid disdain

(Verse 3)

I've rarely known a love so true

Surrounded by those who withhold their due

I long for affection, yet struggle to ask

And when I do, it's like a shattered glass

(Chorus)

But I remember the heartbreak like yesterday

Each punch in the gut, it just won't fade away

When words are spoken, feelings betray

Leaving me stranded in a love's disarray

(Outro)

What I didn't tell you, dear one of mine

Is you're the exception, the love that shines

In a world of disappointment, you remain

My beacon of hope, my eternal refrain
