Nevertheless

[blushinlkewine]

she tells herself she's foolish
that nothing can ever happen
she's always reminding herself
of the pain that always comes
she tries to keep herself
from falling and further
from wanting him any more

nevertheless, she's in love.

he tells her he's flattered.
she thinks he better be
he tells her she's sweet
but it wouldn't work.
its cliche
and all she wanted to do
was get to know him

nevertheless, she's in love.

nine years between them
she's always had a thing
for someone a bit older.
but she wishes this
wouldn't hold so much weight.

nevertheless, she's in love.

he's got these blue oceans for eyes
first thing she fell into
and she's got this aching to know him
last thing she feels before sleep
she never thought she'd be
so naive.

nevertheless, she's in love.

she's fighting to keep control
while he smiles and grabs eye contact
and her knees melt
into puddles of pure heartache

because she knows it won't get any better
she knows the throbbing
won't subside anytime soon
and she knows she can't do a damn thing
when he finds someone-which he will
she'll be a jealous mess
her entire chest cavity swelling
from shear heartbreak.

nevertheless, she's in love.
