Tonight I laid in your arms
And cried myself to sleep.
It is so easy to be with you,
As you listen to me weep.

But you are just a pawn
In my little game.
I am only using you
And I do not feel shame.

You sit there and listen.
You sit there as I talk.
You caress my head,
while I crave the boy I stalk.

Who am I to play with you?
Why does this have to be?
You are a fine person
And I am silly me.

A poet's words and language
Though strong can not express
That your naivity is so soothing
When I am such a mess.
