Her beautiful symmetry drew him in
The only chemistry we had
was to just be friends

But how could i compete with such a beautiful face
her strands of night put me in my place
i ran so far, but she won the race

Thinking back on all the feelings i had
the way he was still makes me mad
he was beautiful from what i could see and he thought no less of me
so why did our love stop short of perfection?
why do i see tears staining my complexion?

So smile in daytime, cry by night
til my memories fade and his smile isn't as bright.

toss away the pictures, burn up the pieces
unfold the old poems, tear along the creases

His beautiful symmetry drew me in
my tears now run down past my chin

i wonder if our time still makes his head swim
or if his new love has taken all of him,
all at once, or limb by limb?
was it planned out, or just on a whim?

i hope his light never starts to dim.
