I wonder
Where
You are
Tonight
And if
You ever
Think of me
Or do you
Just
Lay there
Her hands in
Your hair
As you sigh
Contentedly
"All my life's buried here, heap earth upon it"
I wonder
Where
You are
Tonight
And if
You ever
Think of me
Or do you
Just
Lay there
Her hands in
Your hair
As you sigh
Contentedly
At your wedding toast
Yesterday
I did not cry one bit
Even when I glanced
Upon your first dance
I held it in
With an iron like grit
For what I wouldn’t do
Is ever tell you
How seeing you so happy
Did hurt
And that, at times,
If just in my mind
I did wish your happy day cursed
When I was told
What did unfold
I’ll admit that
I was envious
For you achieved
Of what I dream
As my will to live
Is tenuous
I
scroll
through
your words
And
realise
mine don’t
compare
For
you all
write so
beautifully
Whereas
I splurge
without
a care
Carry on ‘studying’
For your Mickey Mouse degree
But just know whatever happens
You’ll never be better than me
All
you
do is
bitch
and
moan
And I
listen
with
a sigh
For
you can’t
see what’s
right in
front of
you
Life,
passing
you by
My head hurts,
Does yours?
My heart cries,
Does yours?
My body aches,
Does yours?
My soul dies,
Does yours?
How can it?
Your head
is as pretty
as a picture.
Your heart
is full
to bursting.
Your body
is as perfect
as a model,
And your soul
is an eagle
soaring high above
the rocky plains.
Lucky you.
