i never knew that giving was my basic necessity until you accepted me for what i am
i never knew that love was blinding until i felt it
i never knew what jealousy was until i forced myself to hold back
i never knew that i was able to love until i set myself free
i never knew that i had the courage to do what i really want until i held you
i never knew what it was like to be loved so much until i loved you
i never knew that love hurts until i made you cry
and now, i never knew how much i needed you until i lost you

but i didn’t lose you, because i never really had you
we simply set each other free

i know now that what we had was real
if it wasn’t then there would be no explanation for the tears coming out of our eyes
