This Isn't How Love Is Supposed To Be
Being around you makes me happy
It also makes me sad
In the shadow of indecision
Burned both hearts bad
Deeply scorched scornful words
Into space inside your tender chest
My head cluttered, no room to think
Strong arms where my fears are pressed
I hope you will be okay if I go
You give no reason to leave
Staying because I own no excuse
That is not how love should be
I know what being in love feels like and it isn't obligation and insecurity and feeling down all the time
