Lovely

I see you every day

Always so composed

Lovely in every way

When you smile

I melt a little inside

When you laugh

It's music for my soul

You come to me 

For help and a hand

You ask for advice 

I give you my all

Then you stop looking at me

You ignore my calls

I wonder why 

My heart aches for you again

I need your laugh 

I need your smile

Each day away hurts more and more

All I want is your gentle touches

Your whispers and endless blushes

You've left me 

I'm weaker and weaker every day

I come by your house

I walk past your work 

I linger near your classes

Just for a look, for a sniff

Anything to ease the pain in me

I just want to end the misery 

Come back to me 

Let me love you 

Or I'm lost to a dizzying pain 

With no relief, driving me insane

I see you one day 

Another on your shoulder

I see red and I'm filled with rage

To you, I was just a phase

I shake and tremble but find vigor

To grab the gun and pull the trigger
