beauty

there's beauty in the flowers there's beauty in the trees there's beauty in the showers and the great blue seas but then it reminds me of you and now it's ugly again the pollen makes me sneeze the leaves block out the sun the coldness makes me wheeze your face ruined the fun stupid, stupid! when will you know? that "do you like me" is a fucking yes-or-no! a black and white, nothing in between. but your answer, oh my, was the nastiest gray i've ever seen! "not now", what's what supposed to mean!? what was I supposed to do? your lack of emotion made me want to scream, why did i fall in love with you?! they say love is beautiful, the reward of life. but fuck this shit! i'd rather die. than to live with this feeling, to swat it away, like flies but then it comes back, and i must tell myself more lies lies that i hate you, lies that you're bad, they hurt so much because you were all I ever had. your smile was my sunlight, your laughter was a cool breeze, you kept me up at night, yet i knew you'd never love me so to rid myself of this burden i must cancel it out but if you're still out there, if you're thinking about me too, please don't ever know that i still love you.

i probably shouldn't use rhyme schemes again, like ever, honestly

makes the whole thing sound like a forced essay from a 5th grader
