Unrequited Love
I'm not that girl who always fits in,
the girl who always seems to belong.

I'm not that girl who people look up too,
the girl that everyone loves.                

I'm not that girl who is pretty,
the girl who got all the luck.

I'm not that girl who boys want to date,
The girl with so much charm.

I'm not that girl and I never will be...
I'm just some girl that wants to be THAT girl

i'm sorry for never being good enough.
i'm sorry for never saying the right things.
i'm sorry for not knowing what i want.
i'm sorry for falling way too fast.
i'm sorry for not fitting your
standards.
but most of all,
i'm sorry for being
**myself.

i fell in love with you.

not after we spoke for hours on the phone
and not after i fell asleep in your arms
and not after you sang me a song to
help me sleep.

but when we kissed it was the sweetest taste
of your lips stained with coffee and tattooed
with the taste of cigarettes and *****;
they told me a story about you without
using words...
and that's crazy, isn't it?

i fell in love with you before you said a word to me.
and it wasn't your perfectly placed brown hair or
your eyes that glistened under the sun,

but it was how you could tell me a story without even
opening your mouth.

i know that all your kisses and your kisses and your kisses
in the rain and in my bed and in your car
pile up and wake me in the mornings
and paint me a curious picture
of a salacious dreamland
and a sweet demise

i rather be listening to your voice
than the pouring rain.
i rather lay on your chest
than the cold pillow.
i rather be with you
than my own
self.
i wish i was able to always say the right thing.

i'm quite sure that when you
  plunged your hands into my chest
  you did something
  bad
  to my heart

  i keep thinking
  maybe it's the paranoia
  but after you,
  after her,
  i can't love anyone

  (and i like it
  that way)

i'm jealous of the last cigarette you smoked
that it got to soothe your pain
that it got to make itself at home in your lungs
because i couldn't soothe your pain even if i tried
and i can never leave finger prints on your skin again
i can never feel you again
and i'm jealous of the bed sheets you hung yourself with
they got to feel your warmth
because they got to cease your pain
and even if i tried i couldn't do that either
and your gone
and you're never coming back to say your final goodbye
and that's when i knew the cigarette meant more to you than me.
