no one sees what i see in you. they look at you and turn to whisper jokes about your appearance while i look at you to admire, they hear you and hate on your tongue that keeps running while i hear you and hear something better than my favorite songs, they touch you and feel disgust because of your uncontrollable wants while i touch you and feel every nerve in my body electrify. so helplessly and desperately in love with you, i ignore the things i shouldn’t and chose to cherish the little things that gravitate me to stay until i find myself in ruins. i’m internally lit up by a fire you set up in me, please don’t let me burn out.
