Why Can't It Be Me? Poem by Janara Matugas

Why Can't It Be Me?

Rating: 5.0


Do you know the feeling
Of loving someone
Who has already been loving
Someone else?

It's hard to accept
This weird feeling
It's completely different from anything
'Cause it's all about loving

I can't even understand
Why of all people,
It has to be you who can't
Love me back at all

Why can't it be me?
The one you call, the one you see
Why can't it be me?
The one you love and the one you need

It's hard to accept the fact
That she's completing you day
But it's harder to act
That I'm always okay

Yeah, you're happy with her
But can't you see, dear?
My precious heart is here
Waiting for you to come over

Why can't it be me?
The one you remember
To make your day brighter
Why can't it be me?
The one who'll be your partner, forever
