As I collapse lifelessly on my bed,
I close my eyes and picture your face.
You see, I think of you and smile.

They talk, about you and me.
They lie,
They whisper,
They point.

She hates me now.
Hard to believe we were the best of friends...
You changed us.

See, I can't even allow myself to tell you.
It's impossible,
You can't be with me,
You're with her!
You've always been out of my grasp.

My fingers reach,
But never get there.

My thoughts wander,
But they'll never be reality.

Sometimes...
I wonder why I even bother,
To dream.
But for some reason,
I'm comforted by your face.

Chestnut brown eyes looking down on me,
And your olive skin so smooth,
My hands itch to run through your hair...

I open my eyes and see the ceiling,
Of my bedroom.
I gaze at the mirror,
And imagine you next to me.

But then I see her.
She's fighting to be with you,
She's pushing me away.

I'm losing the battle I know she'll win,
You and her look so right,
together.

And there I am,
My chocolate brown eyes are searching,
Maybe for an answer,
Maybe they'll never find it,
But they're determined to find your soul,
And match it to mine.

So now as I pull the covers,
All the way up to my chin,
A shiver runs through me as I see her cold eyes,
But then I shut my eyes hard,
And sigh,
As I fall, helpless into the comfort,
I feel,
As I see your face.
