Bury me beneath this not-so-hidden desire
So that I may drown in this feeling
Never to be reciprocated.
I will live in fear of losing you.

I put myself behind these bars
So that I may never start a fire in you.
These dreams are illegal;
These memories are my crime.

Smother me
So that I may suffocate in emptiness.
Forever longing,
I will love you my entire life
