I know that when I am with you, I feel different

I know that when I am with you, I change

I know that when I am with you, I feel more diffident

I know that when I am with you, I start to feel strange

But there is something about you that I obsess over

I love that brief happiness I adore so much

I love that temporary smile, that hangs on your glorious, loving face, makes me feel closer

I love that incredible body, makes me feel nice as such

You’ve caused me so much pain, yet the love I feel for you blinds me of it

I have chose a life of ignorance and nothingness, yet have such intense bursts of pleasure

I have built my strong passion and desire, yet both have broken my spirit and independence bit by bit

I have created a solid love and immense emotions, yet have created such weak thinking and for poor choices to occur

I feel like, whenever I am around you, I am loved and whole

I know that, whenever I try too hard to be closer, I have become very aloof and damaged

I feel like, whenever you start to love me, I had a complete soul

I know that, whenever you are often angered or bitter, I now am very disadvantaged

But I guess this is the price I pay

What I have to learn from this hard truth that cannot be lessened

Is that I have to be careful and stay far away

To stay far away from the sweetest poison
