for you

her

You admired her because of her beauty and her flawless skin. Her skin tight red dress made your head turn in a second. That bright red on her perky lips captivated your eyes. She had beautiful long wavy hair, that type of hair every girl desired. She was perfect. She had a body everyone wished for, long beautiful tan legs, curves, flawless skin and the list goes on and on. Her smile would brighten up your day. I tried my hardest to be like her, just so you could look at me the way you looked at her. I was just a pawn and she was your queen, but to her, you were also a pawn. You'd jump through hoops of fire and crossed a thousand oceans just so she could know your name. You picked out the most beautiful flower, her favorite ones, just so she could end up throwing them in the nearest trash can. You dedicated time and patience just for her to say fuck off. She was your everything but you were nothing to her. I was there to heal you, to give you hope, yo get you back up and tell that there were others who'd value you way more than she possibly could. Every night I wished upon a star to be just like her, so I could have your attention and love. But to your eyes I'd never be her. I'd never be that flawless, skin tight wearing dress type of girl. I'd never have those perky red lips or those mesmerizing eyes. It won't matter how much effort I put into it all, I just won't be her. I won't ever have your love and I won't ever have the pleasure for you to see me the same way you look at her.
