C.D

You hurt me, but I still give you my all.

I know I shouldn’t text you, so I decide to call.

With that first venomous kiss that you placed upon my lips,

Felt nice at first, but now has me in a pit.

Yet, I still want you, I'm addicted to the pain.

It continues to hurt, especially the last time you came.

I still love your smile, more and more than you’ll ever know.

I want to see it forever and never let it go.

 

I love everything you do,

And everything you say too

The way your lip forms when you say my name,

The way you look when turning lanes.

The way your gentle touch heals every broken part,

When I have no motivation, I talk to you and then I start.

 

I’m confused and lost, for I have no idea what to do,

All I really know is I want to be with you.

I am not sure if you feel the same,

But sometimes, I feel like you do by the way you say my name.

 

I can keep you sober, make you feel better.

Hell, I even told you this in our letter.

The things you say when we're caught up in the moment.

The way you made me feel, was definitely a component.

It was all too perfect for it to be for me,

I understand that now, but I wish you could see.

I know I'm not pretty or worthy of love,

But you should know that I put you, of all people, above.

 

You’re still the one I want when I'm sad,

The one I feel like has a chance of making me glad.

I think I love you,

I just want you to love me too.
