Alicia, You light up my world when I'm around you, But you make me seem like a shadow, Something that can be passed through easily. I tried my best to be nice to you, But everytime you rejected me. Alicia, I've learned to live life without you, Though having you was never a luxury of mine. I look at others, I go out with others, And I try to love others. Yet whenever I see you walking, I can't help but to stare in awe at the beauty I see before me. Alicia, Though life hasn't granted me the best of lifestyles, Or the fanciest cars, Or the amount of money I would like, I never thought anything would have mattered if I had had you. But then I realised, If I didn't have these things I couldn't get you. For oh Alicia, I've noticed that you are shallow, And uncaring. Alicia, I still have the ping of love in my heart for you, Though a person like you doesn't deserve this love. I can't help but to think about what might have been, If me and you were one. Alicia, Maybe its lust or something else, Maybe it can be called puppy love, Or just a crush. But I wish you could dig out from under the shallowness, And look at the man before you, And ask yourself why you don't love him, The way he loves you.
Reason for writing:
A girl that I go to school with, I've known her most of my life and most of my life she's rejected me just as most others have. Mainly for my lack of money or cars or the other such material things. I wrote this to releave the fealins from me for her.
