Unrequited Love
Loving you is like trying to cash a voided check
The daunting weight of everyone looking as I try
I formed the line and filled out one of those pink slips
Yet I was utterly and effortlessly denied
Its like shopping with no money
Forced to stand around looking helpless
Always being asked if I'd like anything
So instead I take to the windows as my favorite form of purchase
Yet is it one sided because I have not braved to shout it out?
Though I believe I already know your answer
Silently mouthing the words as if you could hear the shapes of my lips
Silly me...
I assume your waiting for your prince
Well I guess I should have told you,
As a child my mother used to call me her little prince
So could I be yours?
Maybe your just not sure what it is you want
Oh believe me when I say, "I understand"
I guessed that I hold myself too high in regard
Thinking that I'd be enough for all of your needs
Bare with me,
But I'm just sick and tired of outweighing your love
Our uneven strokes has left our boat moving in circles
If only you had the urge to put forth more effort with me
Hmm, well its a fate I'm well versed in
So i'll continue to be my confident self-assured self
Who knows, maybe you'll Walk hand in hand with me someday
Til then, I'll continue to hold the weight for two...
