We feel the need to push and fight
for the slightest flicker in your eyes.
What is it that makes us want your approval?
You are no different than the ordinary
cocky guy, we pass in the hallway.

But for some reason,
though it is denied wholeheartedly,
your attention is all we want.

Never will it be something admitted to
but you know.
And it's obvious you know,
but yet we continue to pursue this game
of who can hold your attention, longest.

You use us to feel better about yourself.
You love the fact that girls swoon over you,
and you don't have to do a ******* thing.
A confidence booster to your ego
should not be a priority.

        I'm done playing your game.
        I refuse to be a pawn in your game.
              Check mate.
