Every Day

You see me every day

and yet you do not know

The pain that swells within me

when you have to go 

With each new morning

I wake to see your smile

Which captivates a room

like a man with certain guile

Do you long for me

as I long for you? 

The unknown makes me act 

on what must be true

You see me every day 

and yet you do not know

That when I slit my wrist

I knew you would say "no"
