Not You
I’m as crazy about you
as I am because of you.
How many times did I think
When it came to you that I was through.
Yet every time I see you
My heart jumps a little.
Days are spent,
Nights are dreamt thinking about you.
All I want is for you to be there when I wake.
But I now know
That all I’ve yearned for is a mistake.
The same words
That carry me through the day,
Stab like knives when you’re away.
The only thing that hurts
More than not having you
Is knowing that I can’t.
For some reason you still bring me in,
You enchant.
Like a flame to skin it causes pain.
But its the only thing keeping me stable.
The only thing making me sane.
That I’ve spent years
Looking for a soulmate is true.
Maybe I’ll find a little relief knowing
Its not you.
