you looked at her with an iridescent glow radiating from your smile
filled with the pain she gives you
and you're addicted to the high
her eyes don't look at you the way you look at her
she used you like the towel you used to clean up
the orange juice you spilled this morning
then threw in the wash
and you still haven't caught on
to the fact that she doesn't care
i looked at you with tear stained eyes
puffy from the night before
and yet i still smile
and hope you're okay
my heart dropped beneath the ocean floor
crushed by the weight of realization
that you'll love her
and look at me
like
im
nothing
