SHELLY

Secret Love

Like a deep, dark pain

I struggle within me

Looking at you with her

Wishing it was me

 

I put on a plastic smile

So no one would notice

That my heart is shattered

It\'s so hard to do this

 

The introduction I made

Wasn\'t for you to fall in love

I didn\'t have a clue

Not one sign from above

 

Now I sit with both of you

The perfect matchmaker

My best friend and the guy

I wanted to be my lover

 

My heart implodes

Every time he would say

I\'m like one of the guys

I just look away

 

If for just one second

I can get him to see

How deeply I love him

And what he means to me

 

Instead, I have to be

Maid of honor with a grin

As he pledges his love to another

Again, wishing it me
