i mean, how do i start writing a song about you <br />you're funny, you have a beautiful smile <br />i can't stop thinking about it <br />i love your laugh and your eyes and the way you don't care <br /> <br />about a thing <br />your clothes are a mess and your hair is unkempt <br />but i like it and i like who you are <br /> <br />the thing is, you don't notice <br />and the moment i realized i loved you, <br />you pushed me away almost like you knew <br />i didn't like that <br />it's just a crack in the break to come <br /> <br />you're crazy, you know it and so do i <br />and you lie every time you're high <br />you tell so many stories i could die laughing <br />but i pretend i believe you, because i want to believe you <br />it could have been easy and you could've done me right <br />but you have to make me hurt first, right? <br />make me hurt before i realize what isn't mine <br /> <br />the thing is, you don't know this <br />and the moment i realized you weren't mine <br />you became that much more to me <br />i didn't like that <br />i saw the way you watched her get high <br />i saw the way you watched me watch you <br />and i knew exactly what you were thinking <br />and i was embarassed and i hoped i didn't turn red <br />i went home and cried in my bed <br /> <br />she doesn't know anything about you <br />or i hope she doesn't <br />we could have really been something <br />but i didn't know what you were looking for <br />was it me? i wasn't sure. <br />i wasn't sure of anything <br /> <br />so i'll listen to that song you hate <br />and i'll let it sing me to sleep <br />and hope i forget about you <br />but you won't ever leave<br /><br />Annie Cordelia Adams<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/b-the-song-you-hate/
