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

A sad read, one that first speaks to the person written about and then to us readers about your pain. It is clear, flowing and a truth that so many have experienced and will continue to, sadly.
