in love with my shadow

You were in love with my shadow,

Maybe you never knew me.

I was hoping you would stay tomorrow,

But you came just to leave.

Pictures hanging on the wall,

Numbers that I'll never call,

Broken mirrors still reflect light.

Stained cushions on my bed,

Storms raging inside my head,

I don’t want to put up a fight.

Dusty floors under my feet,

Hiding my flaws behind these sheets,

Spilled paint makes art when spilled right.

Dead flowers with petals turning brown,

When smiles start turning into frowns.

Feels like I've been dropped from a height.

Because you were in love with my shadow,

You never really knew my worth,

You left before the night was over

I should hate you but it still hurts.
