IT'S YOU BUT ME

She has a fairly decent body
Her appearance is ok
Her eyes are kinda pretty
The way she walks is ok
The way she smells is pretty good
Her lips are nice I guess
Her teeth are pretty straight and white
Her hair is ok and smells not bad
I guess the way she is, is fair
I put her off cuz I know she’ll be there
Waiting when I feel like being there
My presence dominates her I intimidate each smile
I’m just so goddamn good looking
I can get any girl if I try
I'll never know how much she loved me
Never understand how much she cared
I won’t appreciate her sweet ass kindness
Her smiles of warmth I’ll never share
Her beauty will never cross my mind 
Because I just don’t care 
I’ll never realize what she offered
Never knowing what I did
I’ll ignore the sweet reminders 
Those sweet feelings that I hid
I make a promise I can’t keep
I shatter her heart in pieces
I guess I still haven’t realize what I could have had
I guess I’m the loser who’s left in pieces
I can’t do any better
A shameless ass hole is what am I
Sweet talkers don’t get their way
They get a nice goodbye
I still have a while
But not a while at all
A day it seems
An hour
A minute
I blinked my eyes 
And she was gone
But I’m still here
