She just likes the attention you give
But refuses to claim you as hers.
You’re a warm body to waste time with.
You gave her your heart
And she squeezes it in her hand
Testing its tenderness.
She just likes the attention you give

You’re a warm body to waste time with.
You gave her your heart
And she squeezes it in her hand
Testing its tenderness.
Maybe all we’re meant to be
Is a happy memory
A perfect moment in time
A merry picture to dusk off
when life knocks you to your knees.
It hard to accept it’s all over
But at least I have
Your gentle touch
And the smiles you gifted for me
to enchant me in my memories
Do you wish I had hated you?
Make it easier so you didn’t have to risk any hurt
No late night phone calls, no deep conversations
where you let down walls and I open up my heart a crack
I wish I had hated you too
and feel nothing as I walk away.
instead you’re charming with your goofy smile.
warm and bright, showing your strength in so much struggle.
I have plenty of messages blowing up my phone
but none from you and you’re the only one on my mind.
Low quality guys sending low quality pictures
I need a true artist like you to show me
some beauty when my eyes are shut too tight.
You came suddenly, unexpectedly but perfectly.
The best moments are the ones that take you by surprise
so I hope you stay and sing through the cracks of my heart
I don’t think this is going to work.
Why?
Because you are you
and we are us.
And we don’t work as well together as I had hoped.
Because you can’t decide on what you want
and I deserve someone who is sure about me.
She’s the type of girl you still think about six months later
after she’s fought for you
after you cancel on her for the fifth time
after you’ve taken her for granted.
when you can’t find anyone else who wants to take care of you
when no one cares to hear about that song you dance to in the car
when you can’t find anyone else to stand up as your advocate as you tear yourself down.
She’s the type of girl you never thought would leave
so you treated her that way and funny enough that’s the reason she left.
And now your sorry ass can’t stop thinking of way to get her back.
You drive my mind crazy with questions about us
Do you like me?
Should we date?
What are we doing?
Am I trying too hard?
Should I let that comment slide?
When are you going to see me again?
Is this love?
No.
I feel.
You think.
I lean closer.
You pull away.
I want more.
You are stuck in the comfort.
I am shoving
You forward.
There will never be an us because
we won’t work.
It will always be a You and an I.
We are not a love story
and we are not a lesson.
We were just two people wasting time.
Comfortable in the in -between
hiding from our truths.
You didn’t love me
and I didn’t want to love you
You’re scared of good things happening
because they always get ripped from you
and you have a devil in your ear telling you
you don’t deserve it. Remind me to kiss the woman
who brought you into this world with deaf ears.
