Blonde Haired Beauty
Blonde haired beauty
Sitting there, observing
Unaware of what she’s doing to me
It really is unnerving
Whenever I try and tell her
I can’t find the courage
Or even the words to describe
How I’m feeling
I’m sick of all this tension
Her face gives me anxiety
Immaculately painted
Her voice is like a poison
That I indulge in willingly
Though I feel it slowly killing me
My heart begins to race
When I lay down to sleep
Thoughts of her keep me awake
And that’s how I remain at length
In my dreams she holds my hands
And smiles at me
But then I wake up and, ‘surprise!’
I’ve had another fantasy
Of the love I’ll never realize
Time marches on seemingly unending
I begin to hate myself
For keeping up the mirage
Of simple friendship
But then I remember, that’s how she feels about it
And I can’t help but stand and shout it
“Oh how I miss our love that never was!”
