Close your eyes,
Picture this in your mind.
See me crying in the rain,
Looking forlorn and in pain.
Eyes red and tears asunder,
Does it move you I wonder?
The whole scene blanks out,
Now it's you that it's about.
See you joking around with friends,
All that laughing that never ends.
Your cool break-dancing moves,
Your musical talents, feet-tapping grooves.
The picture dims and I'm in the dark,
Another reddish bleeding mark.
Tearstained eyes, hidden.
Heartbreaking thoughts, ridden.
Everything fades and you enter,
With your smiles and witty chatter.
You're the one many idolize,
A perfect, sweet, popular boy.
But you're not the one for thee,
When you're in the picture...
There's no me.
