My skin dreads your fingertips ghosting over it Whispering lullabies from the distant shore My lips dread your pair that trail butterfly kisses to the juncture of my jaw My ears dread the dulcet tunes murmured from your pillow lips That caresses the inner workings of my heart with bonafide admiration My heart—the one you have—is the only one that adores every little gesture you make Every slight remark Every subtle action But the rest of me does not want you Because as much as I adore you I cannot picture us together Without the image shattering again.

i love you but i don’t want you
My skin dreads your fingertips ghosting over it Whispering lullabies from the distant shore My lips dread your pair that trail butterfly kisses to the juncture of my jaw My ears dread the dulcet tunes murmured from your pillow lips That caresses the inner workings of my heart with bonafide admiration My heart—the one you have—is the only one that adores every little gesture you make Every slight remark Every subtle action But the rest of me does not want you Because as much as I adore you I cannot picture us together Without the image shattering again.
