Amped Up Desire
A week has passed
Since I felt like I meant
Something to you
And I have tried my best
To not catch feelings
For someone I can't have.
You warned me about
What would happen
If I wanted too much
But you're too much of
An amazing person
For me to resist.
I want to protect you
And take away
All of your hurt
But I will never get to
Because that's not
What you want from me.
I knew what I was
Getting myself into
And did it anyways,
So now I'm lonely
And you're busy
Enjoying your life.
Between the guilt
Of not being what
You need me to be,
And this desire
And need to
Matter to someone,
You and I
Find our times
Together to be
Fulfilling at the time
But leaving me
Craving so much more.
