Spoiled Poem by reina Lorenzo

5/5/04

just sitting around
with my naked brain
pushing myself to understand
times that you were spoiled by me.

You are always beside me and
I’m always beside you
But you never look at me (the way I looked at you)
It’s stupid and cheap to be proud of it
But please, understand
I just wanna be you shadow
Who needs to own you but
You never see me through.

Sitting around
With my unflavored tears
Keeping myself strong for you, waiting
To look at me,
For the last time.
