I am that guy

This tangle of feelings you left at my apartment

is consuming me

leaving me exhausted

and at the same time wanting more

 

The other night it climbed down my throat

and made it's home wrapped up around my heart

 

It is heavy as it is tight

Its mass tiny, yet it's weight enormous

I know that I want it gone

at the same time don't know if I could live without it

 

It has been with me for so long now

If I remember right, since long before you

You have only made things more complicated

my grip tighter

the feelings, ugly

the light darker

the tangle more complicated
