Can't Help Falling in Love


You put a bullet through my halo

With your stupid smirk  

 

You drowned me in the ocean

That is your eyes

 

You are a steady structure

Like that of a skyscraper

 

Something I can always lean on

 

You blinded me with your smile

And now all I can hear is your laugh

 

I fell for you the way Thor fell to Earth

 

You shine like the stars

You light up my heart

 

I rolled my dice and bet my money

Man did I hit the jackpot

Ready! Aim! Fire!

Shoot an arrow through my heart

Man did it hurt

When I realized how stupid I am

 

I broke the rules falling for you

I broke everything I stand for

 

I hate you

And what you do to me

 

I lost in this battlefield of love

And I am still picking up the pieces

It's was a direct hit like battleships

And I lost the game

 

Late night phone calls  

Random texts at 2:30 in the morning

Round the clock meme tagging  

Talks about life in the back seat of my car

 

You mean so much to mean

More than you will ever realize

More than I should ever care about anyone

 

I want to say that I hate you

I want to say that we can't be friends

I want to say that I don't want you in my life

I want to say that I don’t need you  

 

But I can't lie to you

 

Because reality is

I love you

I need you

And I don't ever want to lose you

 

You mean the world to me

 

You ruined my life

With your stupid smile

 

But seeing you smile

Makes me happier than

Taco Tuesday

 

I fell for someone

I shouldn't have

 

I fell for the one person in this world

I knew I couldn't have

 

You run laps around my mind

Like you are training to be an olympian

 

I hate how vulnerable you make me feel

I hate how you can still make me laugh even when I’m mad at you

I hate how you never leave my side

I hate how your smile makes my heart flutter

I hate what you do to my head   

 

I hate the fact that I don't hate you at all
