Love Someone, but Not Me

Each day, I yearn more and more
For the hand of a girl so close
Yet embittered, it seems so far
As I am not the one she chose

Why should I be so jealous?
Of that one guy, just so lucky
It was not I whom she met first
And alas, this situation be not too sucky

I find it great to garner our friendship
Yet my jealousy first blinded me
To how great a person her chosen is
Quite frankly, jealousy and envy don’t suit me

This journey will be worth the while
As long as she is still here
How I enjoy her lustrous smile
As I stare from over there

Oh my gosh, she is quite adorable
Still, I can hope that in her eyes
My actions and I aren’t too deplorable
Even as I stare from way over here

It is obvious, I’m in love!
My heart and mind tell me so
Still, this love can be so tough
Head over heels, more so than I thought

I’m a man, disconnected from his feelings
Of that, there can really be no doubt
How can I really, in the world?
Tell her about these feelings flowing about

Maybe I should, maybe I shouldn’t
Reveal these feelings of mine just yet
In the chance of ruining our relationship, I couldn’t
Possibly bear that very thought

So I’ll let things stay as they are now
Because her smile I love to see
It matters much more to me
That each day, she remain happy

Because she’s the one I love
She should always be free
Even though she’s loving someone
That someone is, but not me
