Why Can'T We Be? Poem by Eve Young

How can I make you see?
You belong here with me
When will you ever feel?
My love for you is real.

It drives me crazy
Knowing you're with someone else
If there's just maybe
A chance for me to take her place.

Why can't we be?
Can't there be us?
No you and me
Just you and she.

Do you even know I am here?
Ever noticed when I am near?
Wished you could look me in the eyes
See it's still you my heart desires.

But it really doesn't matter now
You won't even hear my vow
'cause in your heart there's no more me
Can only wish she makes you happy.
