I should let you go because
you are poisoning my world
with every charming remark
and I know this can’t end well
but I’m caught up in your voice
your words make me feel perfect
but that is not your job anymore
you are not my prince charming

still I cannot bear to cut you out of my life
your sweetness overpowers my rationality
you can convince me that I am beautiful
something that I’ve never truly believed
and I’ve managed to convince myself that
our flirty conversations are harmless because
that lie is easier than the idea of letting you go
