I'm the girl who goes to a bookstore
Runs her hand along spines of books
Reads blurbs, dedications and names
Looks for titles in an ever growing list of books to buy
And then remembers she cannot buy a single book
Because her wallet is empty
And she has too many unread books at home
So she walks out of the bookstore
With a heavy heart
Scolding herself for walking into the store
Knowing fully well she would leave empty-handed
And so
Why are you surprised to hear
That my heart has chosen you
As the one to love
Even though I know
You will never
Feel that way about me?
