he is just a boy,
my own mother would say,
he will treat you like a toy,
my dad would speak to play

you would display attention,
and i would be hooked.
you used the pole to reel me in,
was it the way I looked?

I would always look ahead,
with hope to find you with me,
But I only cried instead,
as for she was yours to be

her perfect teeth shone,
like a star in the night.
my feeling were prone,
to be struck with a fight

i cannot compete,
because she is too pretty.
i want to be the one you meet,
like i could be so witty.

I am no way her,
so thats why you don't see me.
what would you prefer,
is that the only way to be?

the relationship is okay,
so i keep my presence low.
i only want to say,
can I be the one to which you say hello?

i cannot see it through
because, i want to kiss your lips
she cannot be with you,
because, i want to hug your hips

As for me, i'm always bare,
and you sparked with joy,
I wanted you to care,
But again, you're just a boy
