Nov 2016
Today was the first day I cried over you
And you have no idea,
How you make me feel
When your smile reaches your eyes and you look into my soul.
Stolen kisses and groping in hidden streets
Lingering looks and wandering hands.
And then you go home
To her
Guilty and red cheeked, leaving unsaid words and unused lips.
And I go home
Wanting and dejected, hoping for more but knowing it isn't real.
Because I'll never compare but I'll never make you choose.
And I cry for what could have been and what will never be
And I cry for your arrogance and my weakness
But most of all, I cry for the love I'll never know
