A/N:: believe it or not, I wrote this poem several years ago after the guy
I feel hard for began to see someone else on the side. Then just the other
night I was going through all of my crap from when I was in school and
found this. I was surprised to see that it also went along with the Inu
Yasha - Kikyo - Kagome, love triangle. I hope you all enjoy it!

I'm Competing Against a Memory

I'm competing against a memory,
Something I can and will not do.
My heart drops wearily,
From the love I feel for you.

It's what she is and who she is,
That drives me far away.
It's how she is and where she is,
That torments me night and day.

She is with us from sunup to sundown,
Yet you claim to be free.
She's turned my world upside down,
So why can't you see.

I'm competing against a memory,
Something I can and will not do.
My head drops wearily,
From the love I feel for you.
