now that I haven't seen you for a while

it's seemed to lessen the pain

the drama

the joy

but when I hear your voice

see your eyes

my heart still flutters

and my soul still cries

because I need you

more than anything

because I need you

like a disease I can't live without

like my favorite poison

because you're bad for me

turning my stomach in knots

and making me feel

so ugly

because you will never see

that I love you for so much more

and my heart

doesn't know what to do
