I Loved You

I really did

I just wanted your attention all the time

I wanted you to notice me the way I did you

You were the best out of all of them

Everything I did

I did for you

I loved you so much

But you were beyond my reach

You went and hid behind him

And he wrapped his arms around you

Those snake eyes ravaging your body like I knew they would

His hands beckoned

You left

I was so jealous

The green in my eyes was that of envy

It seemed everyone else had a claim on you

More so then I did

Even though I was standing right next to you

You hardly noticed

You wanted power

And power meant him

So I watched and I waited

But you never looked my way

And if you did

It was only to look right passed

For a stronger appointment

You took me for granted

You called, I came running

Like you knew I would

You said jump

I always asked how high

Like you expected me to

You told me to stick my neck under a red hot iron

I would have

Just for you

Only you

I loved you
