I Wish I Meant Enough

---

I wish I meant enough for you to stay

Wish I was the thought that got you through the day

You moved on clean, while I drowned in gray

Said you cared, then you drifted away

Never begged, just waited in silence

Still kept your voice in my playlist, in private

Could’ve been more, but I ran outta proof

I just wish I meant enough to you

We had laughs that could light up pain

But I guess that don’t matter when the love’s one-way

You held your phone more than you held me

Maybe that’s why I felt so empty

Used to write your name in the margins

Now I just write to forget the hardship

Tried to fight for you, but not myself

Now I’m alone, relearning help

You told me I was “too much” for your peace

But now I see it was never that deep

You was there in body, but your soul on leave

I was building bridges, you was thinking of leave

I wish I meant enough for you to stay

Wish I was the thought that got you through the day

You moved on clean, while I drowned in gray

Said you cared, then you drifted away

Never begged, just waited in silence

Still kept your voice in my playlist, in private

Could’ve been more, but I ran outta proof

I just wish I meant enough to you

And it’s not that I hate you… I don’t

I just hate that I let go of hope

Held on too long to a maybe or a ghost

Now I write love songs to what hurt the most

Saw your smile in someone else’s arms

Didn’t even flinch, just drove past calm

I cried later, where no one could hear

Even now, it still pulls me near

If healing was easy, I’d be done by now

But I guess that’s not how this plays out

You forgot me fast—but not me, not yet

You the one heartbreak I can’t forget

I wish I meant enough for you to stay

Wish I was the one you needed that day

But you made your choice, and you made it true

I just wish I meant enough to you
