Nice GuysA Poem by Darian B.We are always told "nice guys finish last", and maybe that's why the one girl I have ever loved didn't love me back but I will never stop being a "nice guy" if it helps those I care about
They say that nice guys finish last
So I guess that's what I'll do Because if it helps you finish first My arrow will stay true I'll always be here to catch you Whenever you fall And I hope to be the one Who helps break down your wall I'm trying to be a better man So I can help you out And I will still be right there helping If you choose a different route You're the only one I've ever loved And I don't want that to change But you're in control, my hands are cuffed I'm a target on your shooting range Because if nice guys finish last I'd have it no other way Even though it hurts, it's worth the pain To make sure you're okay I'm broken on the side of the road I watch as you drive past I'm just there so I can fuel up your tank And make your happiness last I don't want to be forgotten Because I will never forget But if you forget me, don't forget yourself I don't want you to lead a life of regret So once in a blue moon, please think of me I don't need much but it would be nice Think of the good times we shared Before we said our goodbyes But nice guys don't finish last In fact we don't finish at all We hold on and we don't let go We smile lightly as we begin to bawl Nice guys know what it means to truly love We see everything and we know good from bad And yes, we may not end up on top But we are lost in memories of the good times we had Every moments a gift, every thought a dream I'm always dreaming of you, holding on to your presents Because I may not end up with you, but at least I had you And I never will let go of your essence © 2016 Darian B.Author's Note
