It is so strange

He doesn’t show me

More affection than he needs

Always formal

To respectful

Never takes romantic leads

There are times

I imagine

I’m not always on his mind

 

I’m in every kind of trouble

These turns I thought I wanted

Now fills me with chilling dread

Does she know that it isn’t her

I want in my arms?

But a Goddess passing me by

Smiling at me

I’m lost in her eyes

And snow coloured hair

 

I’m certain that I love him

But our love can be misplaced

Am I a traitor

For the thoughts I have?

For the feelings I feel?

Did I take a step too far?

 

I don’t understand him

Sometimes I catch something in his eyes

But is it for me

Or someone else?

He loves me

I know he does

Doesn’t he?

 

I’m lost

Drifting at sea

I know the sensible thing to do

All the plans

Laid out become me

But my heart

Isn’t following at all

For every time I kiss her

I think of a woman

With the name Beauty

And it fits her so

 

What am I to do?

Who can I turn to?

I know my heart

But I also know my head

I love him

But I can’t have him

He is for another

And not me

Not me

 

When he takes me in his arms

Am I in his thoughts

Or does he imagine

I’m someone else?

Who is fooling who?

For he loves me

Doesn’t he?

 

My life is turned upside down

This isn’t fair to me

Or her

To anyone of them

To any of us

I love her

But today I’m marrying

Another

It is too late

Isn’t it?

 

Goddess, give me strength

I feel like I’m dying

He is to give his heart away

And I’m losing mine as well

I feel like crying

But I don’t

I should be happy for them

For they are my friends

But I cannot

For I love him

 

This is my day

This is my big moment

Yet still I feel unease

What is missing?

What is wrong?

My eyes fall

On him

Maybe it isn’t missing

For just maybe

It was never really there

 

I stand besides her

But my eyes catches another’s

She holds my heart

In her delicate chocolate brown hands

Always have

Always will

And as I am to answer

In that moment I know what the answer will be

Have to be

In my heart

I have always known
