You Weren't 2.19.20 / 7.23.20
You were not my dream-come true,
but I dreamt about you.
You were not prince charming,
but your words, and some of your actions,
charmed me.
You were not my best—for sure,
but you were definitely my favorite.
Your mouth was like a bad movie where the lips don't match the audio;
a dubbed-over from a different language.
And I stayed until I could take no more; it was distracting and I was starting to get a headache; your words didn't match your actions.
It was over.
You were just playing your part;
one of your many roles you've played,
but still played the same two-dimensional character.
Not sure what you were after.
And I didn't care to stay for the credits.
Happy I am now, that you weren't.
