Boys like you simply do not
love girls like me;
girls with lifeless eyes and
battered skin bruised by inward
struggles seeping through pores
soaked in self-hatred
Boys like you will not love the
girl whose tongue is
tied in knots in your presence
but girls like me will
never stop loving you and
your massive hands tucked into
back pockets, tucking
smiles into my heart, tuck
her hair behind her ear as my
heart stops, watching the
boy who could never
love a girl like me.
