Just Another Girl

A Crush

Every word you say cuts me, leaves a ragged edge
The enthusiam slices deeper
My fake smile aches and disappears
I crumble
Until i am nothing but a pile of ribbons on the floor
Yet you keep talking and talking
Seemingly taking no notice
Of the pain and jealousy coursing through me
I wish i didnt feel this way
I wish i could leave this all behind
So i squish it down, deny myself
Until i am an empty shell, devoid of feeling
And then i know i can speak to you again
With the fake smile and easy laugh
