I've told you before
You're beautiful
Don't ever doubt it
Not for a second
You think it's a lie
Shameless, worthless flattery
It couldn't be farther from the truth
Every fiber of my being
Wants to meld with yours
And it's true, oh it's true
Your perfection
It's second to none
It's a secret, this flawlessness
For every small fault on your skin
Every crack in your voice, every whistled breath
they're second to none
Heartburn
Not the cliche, set my heart on fire kind
Literal, acidic pain
I wake each day to rediscover
I will never be good enough
I could never reach you
I lose sleep
Your harsh scrutiny
Heeds my self improvement
You're sorry, I'm the one
I'm the one
You are second to none
And you broke my heart,
I couldn't be farther from anger
I couldn't be farther from hatred
So long sanity
I wear blinders
They make you second to none
It's a secret, this flawlessness,
For every tousled hair,
And every heaved sigh, and every sideways smile
They leave you second to none.
It's melodrama
It's naive
Irrational at best
I understand, it's ridiculous
But you're still second to none

- Artist: karzlee
- Description: This is a piece I worked on for a little bit. It's a little cheesy but like all of my poetry, it's written from the heart and real experience. Hope you like it!
