irony

irony is
falling in love
with a man you barely know
and then to know him and see he has no love
and to then find love, as a true friend, in his exwife

irony is
learning
to stay
just friends
and being
the "wingman"
just to find
hes everything
i could ever want

irony is
how
he makes
me smile
just to hear
his voice
and see
his eyes
and hear
his laugh
when he doesn't even try

irony is
thinking
someone is
a true friend
just to have them
stab you
in the back
for being honest

irony is
acting
as someone
who you are not
nor wish to be
nor can be.

irony is
how i
have fallin
for you
so hard
when before
it was so little
and able to be pushed away
held back

irony is
loving
a man
who i could never have
and so
settling
for one that i have had
that cares nothing
for me
anymore
and maybe
never did

irony is
seeing
the beauty
of the world
and each new sunrise
and sunset
and not thanking God
for each creation

irony is
seeing
and yet
not
believing
