"Opposites"

I watch him walk away from here,
Away from me, his friend, his fear.

He deserves so much better than me,
I may be a Queen, but I'm nothing pretty.

I need him more than he can tell,
I've learned to hide it pretty well.

He's so much stronger than he knows,
He keeps heavy emotions closed.

How he walks and talks is all you see,
Just the kind of imperfect I want to be.

I wish he could want me, just one time,
The way I've always wished he was mine.

He loves her a lot; I can see it now,
When she enters, he wants to take a bow.

The girl, oh she just doesn't see,
The way he looks at her is how I want him to look at me.

She's so oblivious and sweet,
He fully deserves her, every time they meet.

I have to accept this outcome,
I'm feeling as hurt as possible and then some.

Oh, I wish she could let us be.
But she's the opposite of me.
