If You Pass Me By

And for one crazy second I thought I should let you know...
Nobody can love you the way I do.
But then you seemed content, and troubled with far more pleasant things...
And I hoped you were so.
And in silent prayers, I thanked a god I've never known
But if you ever pass me by on a street
Could you tell me you were happy?

  1. What if you can't control your anxiety and listen to the another's words would just harm you? Do we have to ask if they were happy?

    1. Well if you think someone's happiness, in particular the one you love's happiness could kill you, then perhaps not. Yet I have seen people who'd risk it just to see if it could kill them.
