don't need a label
to have you be mine
i'm yours
i've been
since the night
these eyes
caught on to you
i swear,
your voice split the room
and my brain
into two halves
a visual i could not apprehend
or understand
so i didn't try
i wanted you
in my mind
i was already on top of you
but i sat there
with an ache that ran through
my body
while you spoke about
your favorite things
and recited popular rap songs
you held my hand at the corner of the bar
for a brief moment
and i died
i lived
my ******* heart fell to the floor
and i swallowed my words
along with my sighs
months later
and you give me the same effect
it's sad to think
that you may never
know this
that you question this
when it's the truth
i cling to most
