My head seems to swirl.
I wish I had the guts to tell you
to
kiss me.
I just want to pretend I'm yours,
just for one minute.
I feel angry with myself.
I am overthinking,
wishful dreaming.
I feel out of touch.
Like an alien on Earth.
I feel out of place.
Like a knife placed with sets of guns.
I feel alone.
Even as I stand in a crowded room.
I open my mouth
but nothing comes out.
No one can hear me.
My breath comes out in huffs.
Kiss me
Make me yours
I want to tell you to take me
and do away with me.
I want you to pretend I'm someone else,
someone you can't live without.
I want you to tell me you love me,
even if you don't.
There's nothing wrong with saying stuff you don't mean.
We've done it our whole lives.
Why stop now.
Pretend I'm her
Tell me you love me
I want to be kissed, and touched, and loved, and devoured,
and yours.
Make me yours
For one night
Just pretend
Just for once
Take a minute, and pretend you love me
Just to keep me sane.
I've been going crazy since the day I met you.
Pretend you love me,
for my sake,
of staying sane.
*Tell me you love me
