A tribute to your emotions


I'm so deeply in love, I know I shouldn't be... I shouldn't want you But my heart aches And A heavy lump in my throat compels me to cry Cry, when you're not around God, I feel so selfish... I want your all, but I promise it's pure I want every once of love and hatred, good and evil All that you are made of I accept it all if it's you. I crave to cry your tears and smile your happiness I want to be within you, your spirit and strength I desire it all for myself, alone. It frustrates me... In amounts the oblivion couldn't contain To know you can't understand this agonizing love I feel for you I despise the way you lust for the world I scream for hours inside my bleeding heart Please. Please just see me, hear me, choose me. You don't deserve this unconditional, frustrating love... Sometimes I wish I could hate you for it You make my good days bad, bad days good My mind terrorizes my heart in hope it stops But I can't I simply can't. All I can do is suffer as I love you- From inside this invisible box, we are separated You'll never know, That you wet my pillows with tears And fill my clothes with the scent of happy memories I hope that's not all this is to you, Memories? No... I don't care I don't care I DON'T CARE! Even if all you feel for me is temptation in the night Even if all we have is the night Then please, Let me be the starlight in your beautiful night And the sweetness in your dreams Because you are, my first Terrible, agonizing love I wish it to be my last.
