My 2nd Chance

You have no clue

When you say things that Pierce me

And what they put me through 

What Being alone is what fears me

Yet my heart chooses you

You seem to not know what tears mean

You’re beautiful slick black hair

Soft to the touch

Skin so mesmerizing it’s not fair

Soft voice melts me as such 

Beautiful sparkling brown eyes I try not to stare

Hold me as tight as you can 

Please don’t dismiss me 

I know you saw the others who ran

I just want you to kiss me 

I know you might be the better man 

But you say that I mean nothing 

Those words shattered my hope

Wasted all of my loving 

Thinking about you makes me low

I thought we could be something 

He was my travesty

Never told you about that

You’re still a masterpiece 

Yet in my mind you both still sat

Maybe you took my insecurities to feast

I thought of being with you infinitely 

You were a second chance 

You pushed me away killing me

I wanted to dance

But you rejected me

I wasn’t enough was your stance

Yet for you I would fall deeper 

But I’m dead in your eyes

I want it to be over and see the reaper 

Cause being without you is lies 

With true love I’m an overachiever 

If I can’t have you or him , my soul dies

All the video and pictures on my phone

Seeing you makes me smile and cry

I just wish my emotions would just go

I don’t want to see you without me so I rather die

You’re too perfect, I should’ve known

We share our beliefs 

But I’ll never be able to share your heart

Beautifully bloomed flower as I’m a dead leaf

Maybe I was never good enough to present to your mother from the start

Tears flood down my stained green eyes

I’ll fade from your memory 

Just watch as I see my demise 

Cause we aren’t symmetry
