With the beeping of a phone
And “you’ve got one new message”
On the screen of my phone
My heart does a little a dance, and my stomach does its flips
I ask how last night went
And whether you and the girlfriend had fun
I’m not sure why I’m asking
Or whether I really want to hear the answer
As for what’s been “normal” lately
You reply, with a simple
“It was alright, would have been better with you”
And I feel a little sadness come over me
I’m sad for, both me and her
For her because she loves him so much
And for me, simply because
Although we both know he’s not mine and probably never will be
He knows I do actually still love him.
Author notes
Loving someone elses boyfriend - it isn't exactly an ideal situation. Sometimes you can't ignore the history and connection you have with someone.
