Oblivious

Some time in your life, you'll meet someone who'll treat you right
Who'll make you feel like you're the finest gem of the earth and the only reason there is a thing called beauty
Who will reach into your soul and your past and every story you thought would never last and will turn you inside out.
Who'll make you an open book when all you thought you could be is a dusty novel sitting on a shelf
Who'll tell you "you are extraordinary", and unlike the rest, actually mean it.
Whose eyes will light up at the sight of you because nothing else could be more amazing.
Who gives you love, unconditionally, for nothing in return but your respect.
Who'll tell you each day that you deserve more love than you receive
and more care than you will be willing to believe

And you know what your first instinct will be?
To run
And run you will.
In fear. Fear that someone in this world really holds you dear
Fear that someone could care for you of all, could care for every of your joy and every sorrow filled tear
You would have never known a love like this exists
For you've only known lies and deceit disguised as a kiss
You will feel special and loved and most importantly needed. You will belong
But you will run far away cause anything that's different is wrong
And you know what?
That 'someone' will walk away
as soon as he or she sees no reason to stay
not understanding why you would choose to let a love like that go away
Truth is, you don't understand either, anyway
That 'someone' will love again but never the same
Will never forget your voice, your face, your sweet name
That someone will spend days questioning why
And you will forever be the heart that let go
With an unfinished goodbye.

And I'm definite you will let go
I have no doubt
With a heart that doesn't want to believe in its own beauty
You're always looking for an out
But there is no telling when this someone will come your way
Whether he or she is in the far future, past or walking with you today.
