Green Monster

How I would love if your arms were around me,
If I was the one to make you laugh,
Not her, me.

My middle name should be ‘Green Monster’,
Not because I’m greedy,
But because I am jealous,
This isn’t an ‘omg she is going to the concert I want to go to’ jealously,
Oh no, this is so much more.

I want to be with you every second of the day,
And every moment of the night,
I want to be the one you think of when you wake up.
I want to be the girl you walk to class and eat lunch with.

I would love to be the girl who gets to wrap my arms around your middle
And rest my head on your chest.
Or be the one who catches you staring at me because you think I’m pretty

You know that Green Monster I mentioned?
Yeah him,
You can’t miss him,
I am even surprised that you haven’t seen him.
But I shouldn’t be,
You don’t even see me.

I’m so jealous of her that I change how I act to please you
And you don’t even realize it.

Will you look at me for at least a minute?

Will you take the time to see the real me?

Not this Green Monster I am slowly becoming.
