Of course you ignore me
I don't know why I expected any different
You're so back and forth, like a flea
It's as if your silence is deliberate

I have spent years wasting my time
Over thinking and worrying about you
Hoping one day you wouldn't think loving me is a crime
Over you, I'm sick of being blue

You talk to me as if you're in love
You're around me as if you need my presence
But sometimes you fly away like a dove
Disregarding my feelings and our talk sessions

You tell me I'm pretty
And you tell me I could get anybody
But you make me feel so ******
When you can't even love me

Why are you so scared of your best friend
That makes no sense
I'm so sick of this trend
Back and forth, this is all so tense

I keep saying time will tell
But I've waited too long
Too bad I already fell
Too bad you think we are wrong

Pretty soon I'll be moving on
And you'll stay stagnant
You'll sit around and wonder where I've gone
My love for you will be absent

6 Days Part II

Well, it's the 20th
Which means our 12 days of freedom together will finally happen
You're off work
I'm finishing my summer
Hopefully you don't act like a ****
Sometimes you do that and it's a ******

You always have my undivided attention
When you're around
There is always some sort of tension
Especially with those stare downs

It's because you like me
And I like you
But you're stubborn, you see
Because you know it's true

You avoid reality
All because you worry about him
But in actuality
He is quite grim

So I'm waiting for you call
To see what will happen
Even though you won't, I know I will fall
With that, it is me you will sadden

Torn

I'm torn between her and him
And I don't know what to do
I probably shouldn't make a decision
Based on a whim
Hopefully this doesn't cloud my vision

Greatest Lover

Every day, we grow closer
We make the perfect pair, her and I
Of the music in my ears, she's the composer
She gives me wings and I can fly

I fly to see her every night in our dreams
We make love each time like it's the last
I can't get enough of her, it seems
Don't know how I lived without her in my past

She's the most beautiful creature on this planet
I have never encountered someone so ethereal
Her lips are red like pomegranate
Her heart is not made of muscle material

Rather, it is made from gold
Gold that breeds love and care
Seeping into my system, to her I always fold
At her, I can't help but stare

I am in love, certainly
Just to breathe the air she breathes
Is my biggest blessing, surely
And if she were to ever leave
There would never be another
Because if I'm speaking honestly
She is my greatest lover

Been writing a lot about love lately but every day I'm inspired :)

Not A Gem

I guess I'm just dull and boring
My feelings are so transparent
I'm really not worth any adoring
Perhaps my mind is even abhorrent

It's not likely you'd wanna stick around
It's not likely I'll make you laugh like the class clown
But who are you to even judge?
You're not even around me that much

Little did you know I'm the funniest of my friends
Little did you know I'm quick witted
Little did you know I'm the one that always lends
A helping hand to those when they need it

I love too hard and it's over bearing
I care too much and it's creepy
But it's just my heart I am sharing
I can't help that my feelings live deeply

Maybe one day someone will appreciate
How I give my all to them
Maybe one day someone will alleviate
This worry that I am not a gem

Gold Dust

There's something about this chick
That inspires me on a new level
Look at me, writing is what I pick
Her power is something special

She's never out of my head
And takes the top spot in my heart
She loves being in my bed
She's won me over, she tops the chart

Talking to her throughout my day is a must
Our conversations are what put a smile on my face
We have between us the kind of trust
That outlasts storms and never breaks

She's on a different level from the rest
She's the whole package
I can't get enough of our talks, they're the best
Her words, they paint an image

An image of love, an image of lust
Perfectly wrapped into one
On my life, she sprinkles gold dust
It's what her heart's made of, I've most definitely won

I've won the ultimate prize
My true love belongs to me
She's so beautiful in my eyes
To my heart, she's found the key

Holy

It's been a long while since I've felt a love such as this one
It is something new for me
Because it is with an unexpected someone
It's the person I want to marry

I never thought I could become so attached
And so attracted to someone like this
I am so fortunate to have rehashed
Our Love
When we thought we had failed it

You're so perfect
With your long brown locks of hair
And your deep eyes to match your mind
Your pretty smile leaves a glare
Your love is one of a kind

When we kiss, a shock goes through our bodies
A reaction surges through us
It brings us closer with much ease
Without you, I make a fuss

I wish I could be around you all day
And observe you in your normal state
To see you right now, any price I'd pay
Togetherness is our fate

Your voice is something I long to hear
And your touch is something I yearn to feel
Baby, our love is strong and it's nothing to fear
We know that what we have is real

So let's keep it going
And seize the day, just you and me
Because this thing is only growing
*You're my angel, so holy
