'...and I’m left alone.'

By Kylee OliveiraPublished 6 years ago 1 min read

I saw you.

You saw her.

I tried to get you to notice me,

Anything I could.

If you asked, I probably would have done anything.

In that aspect, I lost myself trying to be anything I thought you wanted me to be.

I didn’t realize that it only was drawing you further from me.

By the time I did realize, it was too late.

And by then, she had won.

I sat by myself and wondered how every time I think something may take off and go my way, it just ends up being nothing

and I’m left alone.
