They loved him
so did I
I didn't know at the time
But now I do
Little did we know
How he longed for a genuine smile
Little did we know
The one he bore was vain
As it was beautiful.
I want to know him
But I was told
Not to try
He would leave me.
Like he did her
And then her
And then the other
But he seemed fine
My perception was vain
And they knew it
I should not wonder
About a boy
Who only made me ponder
In mystified anger.
He left them
When they needed him
But-
I felt different
I should not be told
I could not be his love
And his love I was alone.
