Everyone says you’re smart, sexy, and beautiful                         All those redeeming qualities right under your cuticle.                 Even teachers look upon you as their shining night                   And your eyes bore holes that will comfort children’s fright.       Some people say that you are the “whole package”                 But I’m afraid of you becoming a hatcheck.                                                                                                                               My life would be complete,                                                         If we had never met (or meet).                                                 You turned my life around                                                         Now it’s all upside down.                                                         Not for the better, but for the worst                                           And to this day, you make it seem like our love wasn’t first.                                                                                                                                                                                                     I wish you weren’t on my mind                                                   Like a bee that buzzes near someone’s behind.                          Even though you aren’t as “head over heels” for me as I am for you                                                                                    Your appearance makes me wonder if that’s really who I called my “little boo.”                                                                       Maybe we weren’t meant to be                                             Since our love story was near the corner of batshit crazy.                                                                                                           I will alter my personality                                                           To that of someone who is rigid in their mentality.                   Someday, somehow, somewhere                                               I will find the man of my dreams, and he will be true and fair.       Now that you no longer my epic fail                                           It will be dismissed as some kind of unreal fairy tale.

I thought of this as I was thinking about movies in where the boyfriends are total douchebags to the girls, and treat them like going out with them isn't worth it.

Thanks, this just popped out of my head one day. And it rhymes, so I thought, "Hey what the heck, why not give it a shot."
