How Foolish I Am (Poem)

I can feel your hair between my fingers.
I can feel your gaze behind my back.
I can feel your heart beating nervously with you beside me.
I can feel your smile whenever I call your name.
I can feel your delight during our late night conversations.
I can feel you inside my heart.

But how foolish I am...
How foolish I am not to accept that you are even happier with her;
That you are even happier with her beside you and between your arms;
That your eyes are even cuter when you look and smile at her;
That your voice are even more beautiful when you talk to her;
That your days are even brighter because of her.
How foolish I am not to accept that she's the one that you truly love;
That she's the main source of your happiness.
How foolish I am not to accept that I am not worth your time and love.

Oh, for all the stars in the galaxy,
How foolish I am not to realize that I'm merely a shadow figure in your eyes.
How foolish I am not to see my own worth.
