I never expected this.
Never knew she had the capability.
To understand other's feelings,
I believed she'd never try to get me,
But for once, she thought of me.
A trait previously inept for her,
Now seems to make it's way to the stage.
Posting images to me that she thinks I'll enjoy,
One with a cute cat watch,
One of shirts my favorite hue.
Her newest love has her starstruck,
I doubt it'll last,
though I wish it would.
She is finally pleasant to speak to,
I had to put up a mask of a loving, jovial daughter,
When really, speaking to her made me sick.
Now she shares her happiness with me.
She finally understands some of the things I like.
19 years have passed,
But she's making the effort.
Her new love speaks to me,
Wishing to meet me,
A rare trait within her selection.
Fingers crossed,
Hope once more visible,
I wish this may last.
So sick of hoping,
So bored of her drama,
Done with the disappointment,
I once more foolishly yearn for things to end differently.
