Your eyeliner looks great
around your friend's eyes.
Yours once turquoise blue
look dull next to the skies.
Your hair looks different
or maybe I am wrong?
Maybe it has always been
that miserable all along?
You seem a different person
I actually wish you were.
Then I could be in love
instead of leaving here.
