A Realization of the Obvious

It's funny.
How blatantly off you can be.
When thinking you know the one you love, I mean.

I was depressed.
Actually, I was a bit of a mess!
Assuming you cared less about me and more about the rest!

Your other good friend, of course.
I wasn't going to make you care about me by force.
Just cry and scream to myself until I was hoarse.

But alas! T'was NOT how you cared about me!
A long talk brought me crashing back into reality.
And made me realize, I was a bit silly.

You care. A lot. You truly do.
Not only about me, or her, but the people closest to you.
I can't believe I didn't even have a clue.

But now I get it.
You'll be with me, and you won't quit.
And trust me. Never again, will I forget.
