The Girl I'll Never Get

by Sigoney Holder   Jun 6, 2013


Now I've never had a problem with getting girls unlike some of the other guys
Since I'm good looking and always up front as I don't believe in telling lies
So my love life is pretty sweet
I get girl after girl as they practically fall at my feet
But that was all way back when
As my life hasn't been the same since I met Susan
Now you're probably thinking she's God gift to all men
But if you saw her you'd have to think again
Now it's not that she's ugly or got two heads or something
It's just that she has ridiculously long hair and wears clothes which no normal human being would be seen dead in
I work with her and she's clumsy, messy and never on time
And she's got this really annoying thing that whenever she's nervous all her words rhyme
She's constantly on her IPod which wouldn't matter if she didn't start to sing
This has actually caused me to bring in ear plugs so I can't hear anything
All the other girls in the office make my pulse run
But all Susan does is stick out like a sore thumb
This means she's the butt of all our office jokes and jibes
But instead of getting upset and reporting us she splits our group and takes bets on both sides
She's everyone's friend and confidant seriously it's like she's some cuddly bear
And what's worse is that she knows none of the guys she talks to wouldn't look at her twice and she doesn't even care
So why do I?
I mean at the moment I'm in between flings with Debbie and Sky
It's weird but no matter what Susan does I have to comment on it
This is stupid as I'm higher than her so I shouldn't give a shit
Right now it's the office party and I'm surrounded by beauties having a ball
So I should be in my element and not thinking about scatty Susan at all
Now things have gone from bad to worse as everyone is dressed to impress
But I've just had the shock of my life because Susan has walked in late as usual but this time wearing a long silver dress
No one has noticed her except me
I'm not even looking at Debbie's low cut dress because Susan is all I see
And she added fuel to the fire but this only gave way to pure denial
Because I swear that I lost my breath when she started to smile
Oh God what the hell is with me okay she looks good but so what?
Have I been working too hard or have I just lost the plot?
Now ever since that night my feelings towards her have completed changed
She's no longer the scatty nutty annoying co-worker who I thought was deranged
She's a rose in a thorn bush a diamond in the rough
She's the only one who I care about enough
This is ironic but a complete impossibility
Because she clearly doesn't go for guys like me
So I'm in hell and full of guilt bitter sweet resentment jealousy and regret
Because the one girl I wouldn't have looked twice at is the one girl that I now love but will never get.
