Myka

This is just something I wrote in my notes app, it's about a boy in love with a girl named Myka who he knows he can't be with. Was originally meant to be a song.

I see the way he look sat her

He knows that things are ending

Her expressions grown worn and tired

She's tired of pretending

He sees the way I look at her

Knowing what my heart desires

I see that when she looks at me

Her face softens in the slightest

I notice things he never noticed

The long sleeves that she wears

We took swimming lessons as kids

So why does she hate the lake so much

I see the pain hidden in her eyes

After she closes the shutters

So she puts on a cold hearted disguise

And cries under the covers

He'll never know her the way I know her

"He's a childhood friend" she'll explain

Surely she didn't forget the day

When I took on a half of her pain

Myka I know what you're been through

Your tears stain my favorite hoodie

Covering me in dried blood and vanilla perfume

Myka thank you for not leaving me

The night you made that choice

With shaking hands you held that knife

He was out clubbing with his friends

I was saving your life
