I look longingly at him.
But he looks desperately at her.
I can't say it doesn't hurt,
Because it hurts like hell.
Her stunning beauty always overshadows me
But what am I supposed to do?
She always gets what she wants.
I know,
It isn't fair,
But neither is life.
I just have to learn,
Wipe the tears away,
**** it up,
Paint that painful smile on my quivering lip,
And remember:
He wants her.
He deserves her.
He could never desire a loser like me.
Why would he want me
when he could have her?
But I wish that once,
Just once,
She could open her eyes,
See that I'm dying,
And I could get what I want.

You
I see you
My heart drops
I talk to you
My words slur together
I touch you
My hands start to shake
I hold you
I begin to sweat
I caress you
My mind becomes a blur
I need you
My knees get very weak
I want you
My stomach gets a thousand jittery butterflies
I love you
My eyes tell you the truth
But then...
I break you
And my heart takes a blow
Like a plate shattered on a floor
It can never be fixed,
Or mended,
Or patched up.
It will never,
Ever,
Be the same again

— The End —
