You Don't Always Get What You Want

This is a poem more of a story. Well, not poem but eh?

I feel my heart race
I was always asked out
I always refused
All I didn't know well
All I didn't like
But when I like someone
I can
NEVER
Be with them

They are usually taken
They don't like me,
But someone else
I feel that once racing heart
SHATTER
I feel my legs grow weak
I feel my heart ache
I feel
PAIN

People think I'm cute
People think I'm smart
People think I'm funny
People think I'm amazing

I think I'm none of those
I think I'm annoying
I think I'm always faking the laugh
I think I'm not as smart as I should be
I think I'm too mature for my age

My childhood was taken too early
All
Because
Of
...
Of
Nothing

I see you with him
I see you with her
I see you both laugh
I see the way you look into each other's eyes
I watch as you two fall more deeply in love
All while I stand and watch
I help be the third wheel
I help make it last
All because I'm afraid of others getting hurt
I can't hurt you
So be happy with the person you love

I will never be satisfied.
