Oh, the envy of a girl
Who smiles and laughs with grace
And means it.

Not the kind of happiness we paint on our faces to mask the pain
Her beauty overthrew me.

Oh, the envy of a girl
Who loves herself and shelters in acceptance
Cherishing her flaws.
Thankful for the imperfections.
Her poise overthrew me.

Oh, the envy of a girl 
Who stands in the observation of her creator
Without a doubt
Without disbelief
In love with the one and only
Her faith overthrew me.

Oh, the envy of a girl
Indulged in love, satiated.
A love delivered from one of the few unbroken.
A love so devout
Without a valid comparison.
Her devotion overthrew me.

I
Unhappy, unloved, unaccepted
Cannot compete.
