I'm A Hopeless Elephant

Dear Loveless Monkey, 


It's the big
White
Elephant in the room

And I'm so
Hope-
Lessly in love with you

I want you all
To myself 
And if that makes me petty
Then you can 
Throw me on the shelf 

But somehow I know
I know that you
Want to show
That you love me too

So there it is
I said it
You better believe
I meant it

And that's it
I'm all done
So take it or leave it
I'm ready to run



Love, 

A Hopeless Elephant
With forget-me-not eyes
And a sweet, saddened smile
Because she's still in denial
When she's way up high
In her imaginary sky
Because she doesn't know
What she doesn't know
But she's getting there!
