I'Ve Never Heard
He compares my eyes to sapphires and rubies.
and touches me like he never wants to let go.
When I'm with him I feel like the most special
woman in the world.
It just irks me profusely and utterly confuses
me that even though all signs point to love
I've never heard those words.
Not from him, not from any man. The thought
that It may never be voiced in my presence
makes my heart want to burst out of my chest
and sink like quick sand.
Doesn't anyone want to love me?
I become an old bitter women in
a matter of seconds by just
looking into his eyes and seeing
that he won't be the one to say it to me either.
Silly me. The girl who always gives but
never ends up the receiver. I went home
that night and got drunk off tequila
and tried to pretend that this time
didn't hurt either.
