Irrational
I have seen every photo
Of you on Facebook,
And not just yours.
I have seen every girl
Throughout your life
Give you more
Then I think
I have
To give.
I am not a hit,
I am a miss.
And every picture I see
Of your face hurts more
Than the last.
If it hurts this bad now,
I can’t imagine
Looking back
In a year,
Or in two,
Or as soon
As you say
We're through.
And it doesn't make sense
To know that we won't
Survive.
I just can’t stay
With someone so close
To the sky
While I'm stuck
Down here,
While I’m living
In fear,
While nothing else
Is clear.
Is it irrational that I think like this?
Look at the way you
Held her head in a kiss.
Look at the way
Your smile glows
Looking at her.
Everyone knows
Two stars are meant
To be,
But we are one star
And a me.
Looking at these pictures,
I can finally see.
What's irrational is not
That I think I might be able
To keep you,
What's irrational is that
I ever thought I had this chance
To lose.
