Love Poem: Him

Written by: Amy Duffy

Him

I hear kind words and know they're lies
She's saying that you like me
I'd spend my days lost in your eyes
Addicted then I realize
You will never love me

You're in too deep - lost in her stare
I'm just a ghost of times gone by
You've never noticed me standing there
Knowing you're the perfect pair
Despite the tears I cry

I know I shouldn't be thinking this
She's my friend - but I can't help but miss
That stupid, single, only kiss
And wish you never made it end
