but not I

inpsired but not dedicated
smart but not educated
dating but not courting
loving is not a sport and
you but not I
greasy but not fried
sad but not crying over
you but not I
redeemed but not saved
beaten but not slayed
encouraged but not motivated
bitter but not jaded by
you but not I
gave but not yours
closed but not doors
obstacles but not stopped
you but not I
and just when i thought
but not appeased
it was you
but not I
