now i’m afraid to tell you how i feel.
you are telling me you aren’t lying,
and you used emotion.
you sounded like you cared.

now i feel guilty for doubting you.
for thinking you didn’t mean it.
yet the next day,
you are caring and sweet, and emotional.

so now what?
I know every couple has some rough spots
but ours don’t really exist.
How can they?

We don’t see each other daily,
we don’t go on dates
we’ve only kissed once (in the two years that i’ve known you),
and we don’t talk, we text.

As the tears are rolling down my cheek,
I wonder what has happened to us.
what has happened that we are inseparable?
Why are we so… addicted to each other?

But, is your emotion only visible when i’m sad or depressed or hurt?
or will this become a regular thing?
I hope it does, because it’s nice knowing you care.
It’s nice knowing you will be caring in my times of need.

but i don’t need it just when i’m hurt,
it’s a comfort i prefer to have all the time
it’s like a heart to heart long-distance call,
so when i feel the separation, i fall. (no rhyme intended.)

'You are my personal drug.”
hasn’t anybody told you that drugs are bad?
hasn’t anyone told you what happens if you’re addicted and you suddenly lose your drug?
Doesn’t it bother you?

but nevermind my pointless babbling.
it’s not like you care.
all this is to you is a boring reading
that will soon be sitting in the bottom of your backpack

I don’t know if that’s really the case,
but it seems like that’s what everybody else does
Oh, wait, nevermind.
you aren’t like everybody else.

See?
there i go again,
doubting you for no good reason.
what kind of person am I?

The kind that doesn’t deserve you,
cos your love for me is so dope-
i can barely cope,
when you make my joy go and overflow.

i miss you.
but this pain is something i could do without.
i love you.
but this separation is causing problems.
