Her

Everything is about her all the topics of our conversations all your time, not devoted to your career and you say, all your thoughts when not one me Karma you called it but what did i ever do? i only said what you couldn't say my words draw you closer to her and farther from me Do you really love her? if you did then you wouldn't tell me how you love my smile when we are both pretending no to notice don't touch me face so gently like you do Oh, whatever you do don't, kiss me that way again like the way you wipe my tears before they even come please, don't let me see the words i don't hear All that time i pushed it back the way i pushed you away how one night can open my mind like waking from a rest three years long How is it the words came from my mouth but not from your mouth nor heart so be with her "love" her and i'll pretend still wanting to be "her" -November 11, 2011
