When love isn't mutual...

Heartbreak in Blue

When I lay

Still in bed

Tucked under my blanket

That perfectly

Matches yours

And I hold my breath

And everything is silent

I still

Can hear

Your steady heart beat

As if

It's still there

Beneath my cheek

And even still

When I catch

Sight of you

Even if it's

Next to her

I see flashes

Of your brilliant smile

And hear

Your beautiful voice

Telling me

How perfect

I am

How perfect

We are

How perfect

That moment was

And in the middle

Of the night

When I'm cold

And lonely

And I'm laying there

Wishing I was

In a different bed

I can still feel

Your fingers

On my skin

Your lips on mine

And then I

Wonder

If she knows

How good

She really has it

And I know

That when she looks

In those

Blue eyes

She has no clue

But I guess

That's how it goes

A heartbreak in blue

At least for me

And I think for you too

Love isn't always mutual

I've learned that

And I think so have you
