Love


I look at you,

I see you looking back at me,

I examine you closely,

I try to say "You're beautiful",

But silence fills the air,

How can I love someone,

Who sometimes doesn't care,

Who turns their nose up at me,

While I continue to stare,

I try to say it to you again,

But you turn my words to hurt,

You hate me,

And I don't know why,

I realize I am looking at me.
