you see how I smile at him now,
and you falter in your arrogance
perhaps I have cracked your ego a bit
tainted your confidence with my non chalance
you seem uncertain about my lack of interest in you or what you say
as you follow the path burned between his eyes and mine across the room
I know inside you must be questioning your own ears as you hear me laugh so carelessly with him
not believing your own eyes as you see me smile as you never have before
those are such rare things for me, right?
you know me so much better than this, you think
such a bewildered look on your face
as you try to figure out what is so different about me
trying to take in the glow I have when I am near him
and you try so hard to capture my attention
it was always so easy before
try to sway me away from him
my ignorance of your presence disturbing you
every certainty you have about me
now tinged with clouds of doubt
and as you walk away
glancing back dejectedly over a slumped shoulder
the knowledge sinks into your heart and mind
the first time
you have ever seem me happy
is when you saw me with him
and you falter in your arrogance
perhaps I have cracked your ego a bit
tainted your confidence with my non chalance
you seem uncertain about my lack of interest in you or what you say
as you follow the path burned between his eyes and mine across the room
I know inside you must be questioning your own ears as you hear me laugh so carelessly with him
not believing your own eyes as you see me smile as you never have before
those are such rare things for me, right?
you know me so much better than this, you think
such a bewildered look on your face
as you try to figure out what is so different about me
trying to take in the glow I have when I am near him
and you try so hard to capture my attention
it was always so easy before
try to sway me away from him
my ignorance of your presence disturbing you
every certainty you have about me
now tinged with clouds of doubt
and as you walk away
glancing back dejectedly over a slumped shoulder
the knowledge sinks into your heart and mind
the first time
you have ever seem me happy
is when you saw me with him
"if you should die before me ask if you can bring a friend"....STP
