He's really great
so great, in fact, that it just makes sense
but something is off
some stuff makes it not make sense

him+me+(a little bit of loneliness)=perfection
him+me+(doubt+anxiety)=where I am right now

So what makes two people come together?
How come I can't find someone?
I'm not the one saying "no"
What is making me so undesirable?

I think it's a plain answer
Right in between my two blue eyes
I'm smart, caring, selfless but ...
abandoned here in self-loathing
and no one ... notices

I refuse to blame it on myself ... but not really
It's my appearance, or my attitude, but it's not
It's something I haven't been paying attention to
What?!

He's so perfect
So sweet and kind
Similar to me and caring of others
Why do people leave him behind?

He's not sad
Not lonely
Not depressed or anxious
He's everything I could be if I just could forget him!
