Sometimes,
When I’m sitting next to you,
You seem like you’re so far away,
And I have come to realise that I am only sitting beside you,
That I’m never sitting with you,

And sometimes just knowing that
Is enough to make me want to shake you
And tell you how I feel
And cry and sob and scream.

And sometimes just knowing that
Is enough to subdue me completely,
Like a stiff, sobering drink does
When you’re sad.

And sometimes,
Just looking at you
Makes me want you so bad
That I want to fall to my knees
And beg for you to come back.

And sometimes,
When I look at you
I hate myself so bad
That I feel sick and embarrassed
For even being near you.

Sometimes,
When I’m around you,
I want to stand up and dump him
And tell him that when he kisses me
I think of you,
But then I catch myself and remember
That no matter how I feel about you,
You will never feel the same for me.
And like a daisy in the frost,
We were pretty
But we were never meant to last.
