Trying to cope

Always present, but never seen
Incessantly telling, but never heard
Refusing to believe you could be so mean
Your sexuality left me feeling deterred
Falling for you was never my intention
Before I knew it, these feelings had blossomed
It's not a thing that I'll ever actually mention
I know these feelings can be quite unwelcomed
Remaining silent in an attempt to hide it
Knowing you're straight means I'm wasting my time
When I think of you my flames get lit
But loving you is still a crime...

Being with you was never the goal
A relationship was always out of the question
What I wanted was just a physical connection
One where I wouldn't tell even a soul
Ready and willing to fulfill my role
Hoping to relieve some built up tension
Regardless of what happened we wouldn't mention
Just how well I rode that pole...

Waiting for everything to start getting better for me
Rejected by quality, yet approached by quantity
Being shy, yet still I sigh
Refusing to change, yet alone I engage
Lacking motivation, yet seeking elevation
Striving for better, yet a terrible fretter
Drying these tears, still waiting for the cheers
Full of passion, but it's beginning to slacken
Trying to cope, but a lack of hope
Just keep on humming, better days are coming
It's time to create a new reality...
