UNREQUITED DUET

There is a melody
I want to play for you,
there is a song
I want to sing for you.

But I will not,
because this melody
and this song,
need both of us here
  to play.

About how I can no longer be in love with her because being in love with her, and telling her that I love her and having it feel the way it should when I say that... would require her to love me too -- the way she used to, not in a buried love way.
The last stanza was originally "But I can do no such thing." Original ending was "take both of us to play."
