Unrequited



Can't you see this? She can't breathe.
She can't see without you.
She refuses to live a single day of her life
And she won't live without you.
The colors are all backwards, and the air doesn't taste the same,
She lives and dies by the look in your eyes
As you call out for her name,
Her bones are brittle and they ache
Just to feel your touch,
To surpass your life and live without your skin
Is a thought that's just too much
The morning is the hardest as she wakes up without you,
Living on another day to try just to get through
But you can't see this, you won't listen
You are just as blind,
As you search through life next to the girl
Who just isn't worth your time,
You cry and ache and you don't know why
Wasting your life just passing you by
Her love is but a simple crime,
Still you prosecute her for it.
