Everything I do is worthless
It's been said
It's been shown
As best as I can put it
Somehow it never reaches you
How else could I win?
How else could you see me?
How else could I give up?
Perhaps it's all for the best
You never care
You never see me
Never enough for what I need
So maybe giving up is easier
I'll consider options
I'll put that love away
And burn it down to ashes
I'd be happier never seeing it again
There's always someone else
There's always an obstacle
Or you just don't care about me enough
You'll never see me smile again
It was always from afar
It was always a secret
And that was my main mistake
But now it won't matter what was never said
Foolish dreams
Foolish me
Believing that I had a shot
Obviously I'm as invisible as I thought I was
I'm sure I lost
I'm sure there's someone
Who has more of a heart than you
Author notes
Dec. 24, 2008: I was obviously in such a bad mood that I didn't even leave any notes about it. The thing going on here, much more easier to understand that most of the other things I've been through. To sum it up: Girl likes guy. Guy doesn't seem to notice girl. Girl tells guy, guy agrees. Guy gets girlfriend, isn't Girl. Girl gets mad because it's happened before. Girt gives up.
This really links a lot with Mascarade. Trying to make myself seem like a different person to get someone's attention. Trust me, don't do it. It doesn't work. I just wish I could take my own advice sometimes. "Foolish dreams/Foolish me/Believing that I had a shot/Obviously I'm as invisible as I thought I was", my favorite stanza.

Nicely put!
Been there, done that...who hasn't? As far I'm concerned, this is an encounter most people have at some time in their lives with a significant other.
Lovely insight on life's lessons!

This is a very nice, and very true write. No one should ever try and make another person jealous. It usually doesn't work and if it was meant to be it would happen. Good job and thank you for entering my contest.
