He Doesn't See Me
By Argentum
Our lips press together
He doesn't feel me at all
I run my fingers through his hair
But he doesn't notice
When I look him in the eye
He sees through me
When I run my hands over his naked skin
He feels me not at all
We are so similar
Same green eyes
Same chestnut brown hair
Same hopes and dreams
Yet when the words leave my lips
He doesn't hear me speak them
We would be perfect
If only he would notice me
But instead
He turns away from the mirror
Seeing me not at all
