How can I miss you when you aren’t mine to miss. 
A song brings back every memory of you.  
The feel of your hand, running through my hair, 
The way your lips felt against mine 
As you devoured me 

Memories flood my mind, I can see you standing there 
Holding my hand, like it was meant to be 
We should have known better, 
Perhaps, we are just star crossed lovers 

Soul mates, maybe 
This lifetime just isn’t ours 
Could it be, the time will come 
When truly, I will be yours and you will be mine 

Tears stream down my face 
I just close my eyes 
And see you, staring back at me. 
The smile on your lips a reminder 

Even if we can’t be together 
Our love will never fade 

It lives on in the memories of our time spent together, 
Is there anything better? 
Being wrapped in your arms, knowing I was safe 
You chased the demons away 

And then, our time was over 
No longer lovers, no longer friends 
We simply parted ways 
We tried, time and time again 
Wanting it to work 
It never did 

How is it then, I am missing you,  
though you are not mine to miss 
You belong to your lady love 
I belong to mine 

The phone rings, I see your name 
I shouldn’t answer 
But we both know, 
I will. 

Once again, 
Two star crossed lovers 
Betting against the odds, 
This time, 
It might just work. 

In your arms, 
For a short while, 
We run, 
We hide, 
Nobody can know 

You are my weakness, as I am yours 
A secret we must keep 
For the gods have decided 
We cannot be 

I sit and wonder, 
When we are apart, 
How long this can last, 
Love shouldn’t hurt 
And yet, it does 

I’ll take the hurt, the pain 
Just to see one more time, 
The eyes of my star crossed lover 
To see my love reflected there 

Knowing, perhaps one day 
Star crossed lovers, we will no longer be.
