I'm Here Too

I notice you. If only you could do the same for me. I watch as you walk in. Your eyes scan the room. I pray they land on me. And you get the butterflies I get from you. But of course, that latter doesn't happen. It never does. Your eyes met hers. You blush, and your smile widens. That smile that sends me over the moon with joy. Even in this moment. When it's not directed at me. I find myself falling in love all over again. The two of you dance. To the song that makes me think of you. I hold back tears and continue watching. Although seeing you happy is the best feeling, Seeing you happy without me shatters my heart. You walk in the same direction you came from just hours before. But this time, you hold her hand. Leading the way. You open the door for her. She leaves, and you follow. I wipe a single tear that has managed to find its way down my face. The only thing running through my mind is, What about me? I'm here too.
