Deep Within Your Brown Eyes

By: Angela L. Notaro

I look deep within your big brown eyes
wishing you were my guy,
but I have to face reality- you're not...
So I sit up every night and cry.

We grew up being friends
and we'd always joke around,
but since I told you I have feelings for you,
you threw my heart on the ground.

It's like you took a knife and stabbed me in the back,
and Oh, it hurt so bad!
You said you hate hurting people you are close to,
yet, why do I feel so sad?

I wish I could walk up to you
and hold you in my arms
but when I sit and think about it
all I feel is harm.

I may not be the girl you like, I'm not pretty, Hot, or cute.
I'm just your simple friend.
Someday you'll realize that I could have been the begining,
but you shut me out completely and put me at the end.

I wish you could accept me for who I am,
and for what I make of you
but I guess it will never happen
because our friendship was never true.

You told me that you really do care,
but I just do not understand
maybe you're not who I thought you were,
maybe you're not a "man!"

As I sit here and think about
your beautiful big brown eyes
It hurts me to realize
you're nothing but a simple immature guy.

I guess you could say I'm the fool
for actually believing there would be an "us"
but boy was I wrong,
it's time to back up that bus!

I don't know why I even bother
I can't belive I let you play me like a fool
when the whole time you would sit here
and play it wickedly cool!

I'll love you no matter how much you hurt me,
there's nothing I can do.
My feelings are too strong
to completly lose hope in you.

For some odd reason I still love you,
even though I do not know why...
maybe it's 'cause I fell deeply in love
with your beautiful brown eyes.
