I stare at you for hours You, the one i so want to be Though now i know just what you are I don't know how it came to be Coming and going as you please But never to check up on me You satisfy your vanities Yet somehow never notice me Eyes filled with love, contentment, rage Depending on the day I still marvel as you age And wish that i could someday Locked always behind this glass I yearn only to get through I know if you were behind this glass I'd be better at life than you
