Desire

My heart beats fast
Every time I think of you.
I become uneasy
When I see you.

I know I can't be around you.
Can't concentrate, can't do anything.
I can't be around you.

I can never have you
But I want you.
I can never like you
But I want you.

I can't even look you straight in the eye
You make your little comments
But I know they're just words.
The effect they have on me is great.

Look at what you did to me.
Never done anything stupid
Never made a reckless mistake
Then you tore and shattered everything.
You broke my world of confidence.

Just so easily, so quickly with those words.
You say you want to be my friend
Oh how I've given you the chance.
The hold you have over me is strong.

Please please let me off your chain
You are ruining me.
The desire we have is strong
Desire rules all.
