So beautiful
Or admired
Like you
Boys and girls stare longing
Not one for the boys
The girls are so pretty
And you can’t move
But you’re better than me
Was I ever?
So wanted
Really needed
Like you
How much they paid for you
And you’re worth every cent
You take care of them
I never wanted to anyway
But you’re better than me
Was I ever?
Missed
Received apologies
Like you
They damned their memories
How they longed to see you
They need to know you’re here
While I disappeared
But you’re better than me
Was I ever?
Given a day
To remember
Like you
They bring you flowers
Nearly bow before you
And they have a party
How I hated my birthday
But you’re better than me
Was I ever?
Meant to give
Anything at all
Like you
You give them comfort
Knowledge
Acceptance
Love I never could
But you’re better than me
You’re my gravestone
And I am dead
