You act like you're telling the truth
when you say that my eyes are nice,  
and my smile is great
Sometimes,
You even go as far as to tell me
I'm beautiful
And maybe you aren't lying
Maybe you really do
feel that way about me
But I want, I need
you to understand that
I have never felt that way
about myself
And that I probably never will
That there will always be
a part of me
that cringes inside whenever
you compliment my laugh
And a part that wants to hide
when you look me in the eyes
And maybe I'd believe you a
little bit more if you said that
my eyes reminded you of the sun or
that your love for me burned brighter
than the biggest of stars in the sky
But you won't
Because life to you is all so
simple and routine
And every morning when
you wake up you don't wish
that the sun wouldn't rise
Or that time would stop
forever
You don't wish
That you didn't
Ever wake up
Again
