Oh you, Oh you (Love Life Chronicles Part 3)

I look at you with confusion, For I know I like you a lot, But I can’t come to a conclusion, On whether I should proceed or not, Around you I feel happy, But I am not sure to what extent, You are oh so snappy, With only the purest intent, A vulgar thought has not crossed your mind, You are smarter than most, You are also so kind, And I swear I have never seen you boast, If you ever did, You would apologize immediately, Acting like a kid, Seeking forgiveness expediently, If I were to ask you to be more than we are, I would have to think deeply, I still have a minor scar, From someone I’m not over completely, It would be unfair to you, For me to not be mentally committed, Only pain would ensue, And I would feel twisted, So although I do like you, I just can’t put you through, All those emotions, My previous devotions, That I struggle to move on from, That I need to overcome, Those feelings I still retain, There is nothing to gain, She is long gone, Yet my brain remembers her song, Yet fainter it becomes each day, If only it would go away, Then I could look at you in peace, Knowing she would no longer bother me, From her I need to release, From her I need to be free
