I'Ve Never Heard

He compares my eyes to sapphires and rubies. and touches me like he never wants to let go. When I'm with him I feel like the most special woman in the world. It just irks me profusely and utterly confuses me that even though all signs point to love I've never heard those words. Not from him, not from any man. The thought that It may never be voiced in my presence makes my heart want to burst out of my chest and sink like quick sand. Doesn't anyone want to love me? I become an old bitter women in a matter of seconds by just looking into his eyes and seeing that he won't be the one to say it to me either. Silly me. The girl who always gives but never ends up the receiver. I went home that night and got drunk off tequila and tried to pretend that this time didn't hurt either.
