Let Me Forget You

You were never supposed to be this addictive 

I think about you much to often

To the point where even my self conscious feels ownership of you

When I know I'm not even a passing thought in your mind

I am hopelessly in love with you 

But to you... I'm a joke

A laugh 

A nothing 

You are my world

My stars 

My sun and moon

My everything

I could spend months building a barrier to chain in my devotion 

But you would give me one word

One glance

And the wall would fall and I would be yours again

Tears would soak my pillow on late nights 

But you hadn't the slightest idea 

And even if you did 

You would feel embarrassed 

Ashamed

Because I am not your 'ideal'

Yet, no matter what 

I would blindly come back 

You have ripped my heart out and left it to rot

And I would pick it up, clean it off and hand it right back to you

Naturally it would make sense to hate you

But I don't 

Which makes the pain much more agonizing 

I can't stand going day by day knowing I will never have you as my own

I will never have that stupid smile

I will never have those warm inviting eyes

I will never feel that body pressed against mine

I will never hear those lips say those beautiful words I will forever long for

Just for one day. Love me.

Just for one hours. Give your body over to me.

Just for one minute. Kiss me like there is no tomorrow. 

Just for one moment. Understand my pain.

Since the minute I met you I've been enslaved

I need to forget you and move on

Because I know 

There is no happy ending in the melancholy reality
