Paradise can be torture
When so far out of reach
Like drowning in the ocean
In sight is a beautiful beach
You ogle her like a goddess
Doesn't come as a surprise
You don't have the decency
To look me straight in the eyes
I suppose I am not accustomed to
Such strict segregation
Without one insult hurled my way
Feel a victim of degredation
Your courteous attitude a change
From relaxed behavior I'm used to
To anybody else seem polite as can be
Being treated like a stranger to me is new
The wound within bleeds more
Every time I'm grazed by the sound of your laughter
It's music to my ears
Taunted by the silence after
Leave no details to imagination
Emotions are shown loud and clear
In less than 45 minutes you've managed to remove
Any sliver of doubt still under skin here
But aching heart inside my chest
Beats for solely your name
Fractures worsening in presence
Yours not reacting the same
Because it bangs harder against my ribs
Whenever you come around
As if already wasn't broken enough
Battered more with each excited pound
Your happiness ruins hope
I am glad to see you smile
Devastating to accept the thought
You walking somebody else down the aisle
You said we would marry someday
That you would have already gotten down on one knee
Except wanted to get me the ring I deserved
Must love her a lot more than me
Were those years to you a waste?
Now you've found what you truly desire
Don't understand how you no longer feel a spark
Inside I contain a raging fire
I wish I saw what about her is more special
Than magic we created before
In front of my face is all I ever wanted
It's not mine anymore
It's so difficult to watch you do all the things with her you didn't have the strength to do for me
