I used to think that all I needed to do
was to give of myself
and to offer my love
But it was never enough

I used to think that things could be different
that they should be different
and that they would be someday
But they aren't
and they never will be

It used to hurt and confuse me
your disregard
and your disaffection
But tears are just wasted emotion
And now I find I have none to spare

I also used to think that the opposite of love was hate
that it was anger
or perhaps even rage
But I know now that I was wrong

It's what you give to me in every way
and it's all there's been for us
It's the only thing you've ever had for me

The true opposite of love...

Is indifference
And it's all that's left between us

If I don't say it...who will?

I like this. It's really well written and talks straight up.
