Infatuation 2
You said you were not the one for me.
I think you are not the one for me.
And yet,
Every night I go to bed and wake up to the thought of you.
Every day I walk the streets hoping I would run into you.
I said I liked you so much.
You said, likewise.
You said perhaps one day we could be even more than this.
I said, yes, we could.
You said I should be with somebody else.
I think I should be with you right here, right now.
Every heartbeat, every moment, every second,
I have you in my heart, in my mind, in my dreams.
I do not say "I love you" for it would be a lie.
I do not say "I miss you" for it is already a fact.
We cannot cross this line between us,
to respect what has already been.
I want to break all my rules for you.
You cannot let me do that to myself.
I fall weak on my knees at your resistance.
You, my happiness, leave me with intense sadness.
We are not ready for each other.
But my dear, I am wholly yours.
Come take me when that line vanishes.
