You

by bbmariaklara

You're a pest that plagues me though I never ask. You linger in my head at every one of my tasks. You are where I look for where you shouldn't be, You really are becoming an obsession to me. You are also a fear that I might not admit. You are something I've lost, though were we ever "it"? You are the wish I make at every 11:11; You're always protected, as I pray of the heavens. You are a dream, and you, you're a nightmare too. You are intrigue, making me want to be with you. You're my first waking thought, and I have no idea why. You're the whisper in my heart saying the last line was a lie. You are the truth I try not to loathe so. You are the home I want to carry wherever I go. You are gravity, but stronger-- like Jupiter, not Earth, You're the reason I acknowledge a deeper self-worth. You're the root cause I longed to be from a different town, You're the last excuse why I will willingly clown. You've brought ink back to my fingers and words in my heart; You, you most mythical masterpiece of art. You, who I want to protect from the pain. You could gain it or lose it if with me you remain. You are the destination of both my heart and mind. You should leave my daydreams and see what we find. You are not just the fantasy I have in my head. You are not just the deep aching I want in my bed. You are more and I know it, but how can I be sure? You are someone I want but can't act on for more.
