terrible at haiku’s I just miss you...

I admire you for just a moment,

your eyes tracking the beauty you find

but they were never seeking to find it in mine.

expressions of affection,

declarations of love,

but it’s not thoughts of me that fill your mind.

nobody else’s you want me to be,

the pain of care that’s unrequited cuts deeply.

the more I detach,

the harder you tug,

pulling the line you used to bait me.

I’m tired.

Never yours but nobody else’s either.

Now you hold her and speak with me,

of all of the things you wish she’d be,

While I wish it could’ve been me.

She is everything to you I wished I could’ve been.
