Too Fast To Let Go

My boyfriend broke up with me and he's being totally immature about it right now. Not talking to me...whatever. This goes out to him...
I vaguely remember the day we met.
Okay...well that may be a lie.
But if I convince myself,
Then maybe I wouldn't cry.
I face the world with one big smile,
But no one knows what's hidden inside.
The outside world, they only see happiness.
They've never seen how much I've cried.
As we went on, for sometime,
I opened my heart.
But as I sat there, and tried to ignore,
I couldn't stop everything from falling apart.
Now that you've gone and left,
Yes it sounds crazy, but I'm falling even more in love with you.
I'm trying to let go,
Of all that I've held on to.
Time to move forward with my life.
Stop stressing about the past.
But my time with you,
Was there and gone too fast.
Yes I'm still in love with you.
And yes I still want to be with you.
But does it make that much of a difference?
There is nothing more that I can do.
It's not up to me anymore.
It's all up to you.
I've done what I could, and I can't try anymore.
So be honest and tell me now...do you still feel the way I do?
