I Could Write You...

I could write you rhymes

I could write you prose

I could write you lines and lines

And still you'd never know

Your eyes are burning cruel

Your heart is frigid cold

Still I feel no contempt for you

Still my heart grows ever bold

Your ignorance is no bliss for me

Yet, you are far from naive it's true

You taunt me like no one before

I smile still, and laugh with you

It's hard, I admit, to pretend it hurts

I cherish every word that passes from your lips

While your obliviousness is near unbearable

Any attention, and the facade almost slips

At times harsh implications pass from you

It's hard to imagine how you'd react

False fantasies occur every time I hope you have

Yet, a lucky guess is all, nothing is fact

So I could write you lots of rhymes

And paragraphs of beautiful prose

If I tried, I'd write lines and lines

But my love remains hidden, which is best, I suppose
