Reflect

I can take the rain on the roof of this empty house
That don't bother me
I can take a few tears now and then and just let 'em out

I'm not afraid to cry every once in a while even though
Goin' on with you gone still upsets me
There are days every now and again I pretend I'm okay
But that's not what gets me

What hurts the most
Was being so close
And havin' so much to say
And watchin' you walk away

And never knowin'
What could've been
And not seein' that lovin' you
Is what I was tryin' to do

It's hard to deal with the pain of losin' you everywhere I go
But I'm doin' it
It's hard to force that smile when I see our old friends and I'm alone
Still harder gettin' up, gettin' dressed, livin' with this regret
But I know if I could do it over
I would trade, give away all the words that I saved in my heart
That I left unspoken

What hurts the most
Is being so close
And havin' so much to say
(Much to say)
And watchin' you walk away

And never knowin'
What could've been
And not seein' that lovin' you
Is what I was tryin' to do, oh
Oh yeah

What hurts the most
Was being so close
And havin' so much to say
(To say)
And watchin' you walk away

And never knowin'
What could've been
And not seein' that lovin' you
Is what I was tryin' to do

Not seein' that lovin' you
That's what I was trying to do
- What Hurts The Most by Rascal Flatts

Let us reflect, shall we? Did anyone of you guys or gals lose a friend before? A quite close friend? Or maybe BFFs (The so-called Best Friend(s) Forever)? Or maybe someone you have loved, or have loved you? A relative? A favourite teacher, perhaps? Well, take note of this: When I've said lose (someone), I don't just meant breakups or turning your backs to one another. I also meant being seperated. Being seperated? Could be physically seperated, and most probably never really meet each other anymore. Could be spiritually seperated. You know what I mean. One's alive, while the other is in afterlife. After asking yourself that question, ask again, did you get the chance to say goodbye or say something you really wanted to say to him/her yet is hidden in your heart? I remember seeing a Fan-Made music video of this song based on Final Fantasy 7. If you're interested in the actual plot, well go check on it. This is how it goes: There's the part where Aerith (a girl) got killed by the antagonist Sephiroth and Cloud (the Main Protagonist) is just so close to saving her. So close. Yes yes, you know the relationship between the Cloud and Aerith don't you? Truth is, Cloud didn't really have the chance to tell her his feelings for her, although she somehow gets the idea. And he felt guilty and responsible for her death. And of course, he regretted that he didn't get the chance to say the words in his heart and didn't have the chance to say goodbye. This incident affected him deeply even in the not-so-far future. Well, enough about Final Fantasy 7. So I hope that you guys will cherish the people around you that are really good to you. It hurts when you lose someone you have a good or close relationship with. But It sure hurts a lot more when you didn't have the chance to say what's in your heart, then he/she is gone.
