And I know it's too late
I felt it with dread
As soon as I loved you, You loved someone else instead
Your eyes no longer resemble the oceans
or the blue of a Robin's egg.
They are plastic sheets, human made
artificial beauty that is no longer sane.
And all I wanted was the bend of your shoulder
your collar bone, and smile.
So I could have a place to lay my cheek, and
have my spirits lifted higher.
But you carelesly gave my home away,
I'm an orphan without you, my parents agree.
They tell me I never had you, but I swear
you'll always have me.
An abandoned afterthought of what we could be.
