How can I be beautiful
I try all the old things
you don’t see me at all
unless I’m angry
or I seem not to care
I try all the old things
short skirts
short shirts
bubble gum pink lips
I’m not here anymore
why should I care
when you say I look good
does it come with a kiss
a touch
or even a smile
I’m tired
I try less and less
One day you will say
I don’t understand
why she doesn’t try
Know what?
You don’t try
When did you last
lean into me against the wall
on a cold night
making me forget
anything but you
When did you last
touch my skin
and wonder
How
did you get so lucky
I wonder still

Standing right there next to you;
It's not so much indifference as
Boring familiarity.
chris 44over 18 years agoOthers have already spoken my words for me better than I could say them. Suffice to say I scored you top marks for exploring my inner emotions with such a deft touch.
Which means I loved it.
Anonymousabout 19 years agowont bore you with the "been there, done that" suffice to know that youve made me remember just how it felt. so harsh.
