I often wish you met me first. If only we met before they gave you promises of desire they were never sure they'd keep, before they used you to fill their boredom in between. I wish there was a way you'd let yourself love me, or try to. I want to give you anything and everything you could ask for. But you only strip off the parts that you feel can't hurt you. I can only guess that the part of you that wants me too is the same part that doesn't want to lose yourself in someone else like them. I just wish you met me first.

I wore mascara the day we met, though I'm sure you barely noticed me.

I know you'll never give me a chance, but I can't seem to stop wanting one.
