I dreamily posted you my letter
You successfully flushed it down the drain
I had visions of us sharing some breakfast
But my image didn’t even enter your brain
I could see your eyes in my mind
You could see a lady in white
I had thoughts of us taking a walk
But you loved her that girl from upstairs and one to the right
I beeped when I saw you running
You didn’t lift your head or even look around
I could feel my heart beating when stood next to you
But your heart never flickered or made a single sound
I plucked up the courage eventually
You said I wasn’t your type
I folded like a deckchair on a beach
But then recovered and gave my head a wipe
I’ve never understood why you got to me so intensely
You became close with that girl from the floor above
I guess there’s no harder feeling
But it’s the truth it’s just unrequited love
