I feel really lost right now
With no idea how to get my bearings
Or why I started feeling this way in the first place
I think I need to let go
Of ever believing that someone will love me
With the same depth and intensity as I love
That they will recognize the weight
Of the words
"I love you"
And all the promises they make when they proclaim that to me
Romanticize me
Make me feel overwhelmed with love
Surprise me with all the different ways your love drives you to show me just how you feel
Shower me in words to express the depths of your affection
Pour kisses on more than just my skin
Touch me in my soul so I feel the power of love within you
Go places you never have before
Do things you'd never thought you do
Because even though you've already won me over
I still need to be reminded from time to time
That you can't believe you're lucky enough to call me yours
She brushed off her tears as if it were dirt on her pants

And I wanted to tell her
That things are better when they're *****
I love you
I am hopelessly and desperately in love with you
But I love my well being too
And the last thing I want to choose between one or other
But I will if you force me

And as much as it saddens me,
I won't be choosing you
"I wanted to wait."*
She thought to herself.

He got dressed.
You ripped my heart
Right out of my chest
I feel like there's no breath in me
When you stand so close

I crumple to pieces
Everytime you turn to me and smile
You've got the kind of eyes
I could look at for awhile

Nothing about us is right
You're my greatest sin
But the devil has cast his lots
And I'm losing all self control

You dance so gently
On every one of my heart strings
You're every song I've ever loved
The greatest piece of poetry I know
