Elizabeth Shears

She loves him, he loves her not.
He refuses to give her just one shot.
She's falling apart. He has no clue.
Things would be easy if only he knew.
He has her waiting for the day
He chooses her and she gets her way.
She cries herself to sleep at night.
She's waited forever. It's just not right.
He tells her that she's next in line.
She's waiting for her time to shine.
She wants to prove that she can be
More than what his eyes can see.
Every time he's hers to take,
He proves to her their deal was fake.
His promise brings tears to her face
When others continue to take her place.
She tries to believe he's worth the pain.
Her heart keeps reality from her brain.
She gives him everything he's got.
She loves him; he loves her not.

You're right there, yet you're so far away.
And I'm still counting down the days
That pass as I try my best to move on.
The love I thought was there is gone.
I've tried to be all you wanted me to be,
But there's really no room in your heart for me.
I'm over the ending. Just not over you.
But we both know you don't feel the same as I do.
You ruined everything I thought would last.
You spoiled the future and ruined our past.
You said you loved me, but that's not true,
Though I forced myself to believe in you.
The endless number of days that go by,
I can't seem to move on, and I ask myself why.
I know these feelings may never go away.
I'll just wipe my tears and keep counting each day...
