I know it's just me,
It's just in my head.
These problems don't exist,
My worries are causing nightmares.
My heart is only human,
Filled with greed,
Burning with envy.
My own thoughts sending tears pooling,
Down my cheeks at the mention of your name.
I want to smile,
To laugh,
To not feel so empty inside.
Why can't you see this power you have?
How much sway your words have over me.
Letting me soar above the skies,
Or drown in the sea.
Yet you can't tell what causes this.
You don't realize this ability,
Why can't time stop when we're together,
And speed through moments apart?
I hate my own greediness,
For time spent with you.
