~*~

You make me nervous everytime
Fate blesses me with a mere glance
of your innocent, nonchalant face.

I can't stop my nimble fingers
from picking at my lips until
they bleed and wither dry.

Sweat slips slowly from
my eyes down to my neck.
It feels hot and sickly.

Emotions that I cannot tame
because there are too many
of them to contol.

Each night is filled with
dreams featuring only you
And no one else.

Even though I know that
your heart is captured
I continue to fantasize.

Images fleet in my mind
about her auburn hair
and cheery, burning smile

The only problem is that
she does not feel the
same way about you

Why can't you forget her
and come to me instead?
But, no, you don't want to.

A beating heart may not
reside inside me, but I
can still feel something.

Regardless of the hell
that you put me through
and the whirlwind of sorrow

I still love you.
