You can’t get rid of her. She’s stuck to you Like beach with waves Like shoes with laces Like books with pages. She’s stuck in your mind. When you look at me do you trace me back to her? Should I dye my hair? Let my new blinding blond wash out her deep brown and sun-kissed highlights Or change my style, go for a different look, So, you could finally look at me? Am I the moon? Mesmerising to you, could watch for hours, but only at night only until the dusk hits dawn and she's got all your attention again – you’re drawn. It’s impossible to look straight at the sun, they say but you would try to every time, just to watch her beauty - even if it blinds you Is this deaths duty? Killing me with every word you speak Spilling into my mouth until I throw them back up again and you blame me for the mess they caused. I can only watch from miles away Sitting in the darkness surrounded, I could never be as bright as her. if you never met her, in some divine. Would i still have you if you were mine?
