The Boy with his sad soul, his messy hair, his tired eyes and his broken heart.
The girl, with her pretty hair, her beautiful eyes, her amazing smile, and her insecurities.
This boy, he was good with words, not good at speaking them just at the writing if them, so he spent his time writing about the beautiful girl he had only just met, she who had eyes on another. The boy didn't believe love to be anything more than some unbalanced chemicals in your head, but this girl, she changed his perspective on it all. She was beautiful, hard to take his eyes away from her, she was smart, more so than the others, and he was later to find out, she made him happy. So very happy. She was perfect in all aspects and in every meaning if the word, so he tried and he tried to win her heart away from the other. So eventually he gathered his courage, ever last bit, and asked her out, so subtly that she didn't even know. So this friendship went to relationship, until it was more or less one sided and then it was over... before his eyes flashed away his bright side, the one he'd always been looking for, away went his anchor in this world. The boy with his heavy eyes, his shaggy hair, his sad sad soul, and his poor heart, now broken, shattered beyond any repair. She tried to give it back, but the boy knew it would never be happy with him, it would always yearn for her, her and her eyes, her and her beauty voice. So the boy rejected her giving him his heart back and she dropped it on the ground, it hit the cold hard ground below, and shattered even farther. So she walked away leaving the boy alone with what was left of his destroyed heart, and he cried, shamelessly he cried. Until he arrived home and he couldn't live his life without her, so he took his heart, that he attempted to fix, piece by piece he carefully salvaged and constructed a weak excuse for a heart, incomplete and fragile. Incomplete because no matter how hard the girl tried, most of his heart was still hers. So he fell into a darkness, and overwhelming darkness, with no light. So he cut a little to deep, with one to many pills. But the girl oblivious to his reasons stopped him from leaving her completely, but she betrayed him one last time. She had him sent away to treat his sad soul. He wasn't sure he could forgive the girl but in the end he did, and this beautiful, funny, intelligent girl just ended up with the boy she liked in the start. All his pain, all his suffering in vain. All his trials and all his life wasted, but he could not control it, he still lived her, and he resented the other. So he finally gave up, because it was a hopeless battle, and she would never know that she still owned his heart, that he was still hers even if she wasn't his, but the girl woke up one morning to realize no matter how many girls he dated after her it was to just try and fill the void of losing her, and that he never stopped loving her, not for one moment, and by then it was to late, this boy with his tired blue eyes, shaggy hair, and broken heart, was already gone, she woke up to find out he couldn't go on, that he finally gave up, and he never got to tell her one last time before he left... that he loves her... that boy loved that girl and she would never be able to understand... she would never understand how he felt... so broken... not good enough, and ever so sad... because she was his everything and she gave him nothing... oh the pore boy... oh the oblivious girl...
