Her

I hear you in your sleep,
It haunts you, doesn't it?
I don't know what I can do,
Except to hold you til it passes,

And then when you drink,
You say how much you love me,
And then you talk of her,
Memories from empty glasses,

I'm the best thing that's ever been,
But she was the head-over-heels,
Your only love-at-first-sight girl,
You cannot compete with the dead,

Everytime you bring her up,
The next day you'll forget,
And I just have to stay quiet,
My heart sinks low with dread,

I know that you miss her badly,
And I know that it's unfair,
Though I know you love me still,
I'm afraid of the ghost of her.

You did a good job of expressing what many people can relate to. Very painful.

Nice one, I think its a better feeling share by you.

Seems we can never be loved 100% by anyone.
