(written for an "ex-friend" of mine who has completely changed from her old, sweet self into someone I just don't even want to be around anymore..)

Oblivious

You wouldn't know it
If it hit you with a brick
You wouldn't know it
If it got you with pinprick

You might not even notice
If I said it to your face
I bet you wouldn't notice
If I boxed it up with lace

You wouldn't make the connection
...all you understand is dejection

In your world of hate
you strive for "perfection"
But who really cares?
It's one big infection

You look at the other girls
Insulting their identity
Noticing only the "lack of curls"

You won't even let me
Be who I want
You need to hurt
You need to flaunt

With every heart you take
And every mistake you make
You still think that it matters,
Thinking ignorance flatters

   Tai

I'm an idealist..I don't know where I'm going, but I'm on my way =)

Liltai:  We sometimes never know why people change, but hopefully there will be someone
kinder to take this friend's place. Nice to see you posting here.
