for a writer to be lovesick
is my only required ethic
in creating a work of heart
so when i skimmed your
saint kissed mouth
and moonlight eyes
indeed my first thoughts were— ah! art!
there it was
cupid’s finely-poised dart!
draw, aim, fire!
o, so sweet, a sinful desire
lovesick! lovesick! lovesick!
i wish to write you a work of art, angelus dulce!
you smiled
you whispered with ferocity
“love is an illusion, chèri.
but illusion is the first of all pleasures”
and at that moment
i dipped my body in your delusional paradise
and praised the saints for giving me the ****** wine to drink
illusion is the first of all pleasures.
is my only required ethic
in creating a work of heart
so when i skimmed your
saint kissed mouth
and moonlight eyes
indeed my first thoughts were— ah! art!
there it was
cupid’s finely-poised dart!
draw, aim, fire!
o, so sweet, a sinful desire
lovesick! lovesick! lovesick!
i wish to write you a work of art, angelus dulce!
you smiled
you whispered with ferocity
“love is an illusion, chèri.

and at that moment
i dipped my body in your delusional paradise
and praised the saints for giving me the ****** wine to drink
illusion is the first of all pleasures.

That of a broken-heart better than lovesick for with this broken-heart I know our love was true.
That of a broken-heart better than lovesick; I still remember your soft lips against mine and how you smiled as you were in my arms as my hands shook.
That of a broken-heart better than lovesick for we said we loved each other and we meant it.
That of a broken-heart better than lovesick because you said, "I don't regret what we had and would do it again; I am glad to say, "It's better to have loved and lost than not at all."
That of a broken-heart better than lovesick for one day my broken-heart will heal and you will be a scar on my heart better than lovesick because our love was real.
That of a broken-heart better than lovesick even though you are with someone else, I know we were happy together.
That of a broken-heart better than lovesick, I want you to know you weren't just an experience to me, you were my lover.
That of a broken-heart better than lovesick; I still remember your soft lips against mine and how you smiled as you were in my arms as my hands shook.
That of a broken-heart better than lovesick for we said we loved each other and we meant it.
That of a broken-heart better than lovesick because you said, "I don't regret what we had and would do it again; I am glad to say, "It's better to have loved and lost than not at all."
That of a broken-heart better than lovesick for one day my broken-heart will heal and you will be a scar on my heart better than lovesick because our love was real.
That of a broken-heart better than lovesick even though you are with someone else, I know we were happy together.
That of a broken-heart better than lovesick, I want you to know you weren't just an experience to me, you were my lover.

My heart feels heavy,
And then it feels light.
My world is turning to the left,
And then it turns to the right.
One day I’ll be happy,
And then I’ll be sad.
Like waking up sane,
And going to bed mad.
This has to be a joke,
Or some kind of trick;
As to why I can’t relax.
I think I might be lovesick.
The world stands still
When I look in your eyes.
Eventually it’ll spin again
When we say our goodbyes.
Burning brighter than ever,
You’re the fire to my wick;
Melting me away,
I think I might be lovesick.
I’m on top of the world,
But I am falling fast.
Closer and closer to you,
But I’ll speed right past.
My heart stops for you,
Like a bomb that fails to tick.
Send me to the infirmary
Because I think I’m lovesick.
I've been to every doctor,
And they've ran every test,
Still they don’t know what
Is going on in my chest.
They say its racing back and forth,
To one pace, it won’t stick.
They say I’m losing control
Because I am lovesick.
And then it feels light.
My world is turning to the left,
And then it turns to the right.
One day I’ll be happy,
And then I’ll be sad.
Like waking up sane,
And going to bed mad.
This has to be a joke,
Or some kind of trick;
As to why I can’t relax.
I think I might be lovesick.
The world stands still
When I look in your eyes.
Eventually it’ll spin again
When we say our goodbyes.
Burning brighter than ever,
You’re the fire to my wick;
Melting me away,
I think I might be lovesick.
I’m on top of the world,
But I am falling fast.
Closer and closer to you,
But I’ll speed right past.
My heart stops for you,
Like a bomb that fails to tick.
Send me to the infirmary
Because I think I’m lovesick.
I've been to every doctor,
And they've ran every test,
Still they don’t know what
Is going on in my chest.
They say its racing back and forth,
To one pace, it won’t stick.
They say I’m losing control
Because I am lovesick.
