I found this in the depths of this computer in a notepad file. Seems like I wrote this a long time ago...dated 12th of may apparently...

Watching

gliding across the floor,
she held everyone's gaze.
even mine

i dont need to say, that i cant win her
of course
she's the only one in your eyes
she's never experienced this
since i'm not her
and she's not me

but i can't bring myself to hate her
she's my friend
and i can't hurt her

you
you'll only have eyes for her
i know i've lost you to her
the moment you came in
the first person to ask of you was her
not me

i can't say how much i wished,
that you would look at me
that i had been the one who accepted you first
maybe it was right there and then
that i lost you to her

there's no going back
that much i know
i can't hate you
i can't hate her

she's the beauty of the dance floor
i'm just a bystander
if she calls to you to dance with her
you would say yes

of course
if i did
you would just say no

i let out a sigh
i can't forget you
i don't know why
you don't see

i wish i had done more
to make you like me
i can't change who i am
what i've done
who you like

so i'll hope and pray that
someday
you'll look pass that dark-haired beauty
who couldn't care less

and go looking through the shadows
and find me
who has always watched you
and never said a word

A/N: Actually, I think this is one of the EMO-EST poems I've ever written. I think I based it on a dream I had at that time. So weird huh... I'll publish this post and go and write another one. haha, major poetry fanatic on the rampage
