UNREQUITED LOVE

I'd fallen  for him many times.

But he always ran, everytime

It's like he was afraid of falling deeper into me

Or he even never noticed me

Sometimes we'd talk

We'd have intimate long talks

Naming our imaginary kids or even the places we'd choose to live

But something always wasn't right

Maybe it was me,but then again no

Other men saw and approved of me

So I thought maybe he had unfinished business

I gave him time and one day he looked for me

It was way late when I got to his place,

I tried sleeping but then again I couldn't

How could I sleep when I smelled him all over the place.

His scent intoxicated my thinking and all I wanted was to have his lips mounted on mine

Love is weird and dangerous

But it's him I want, I wanna be there 

But am afraid he'll ran again,

He'll slip like an unrolled spaghetti on a fork 

And I won't have him again,

How would I calm down my heart

How will my lips adjust to the cold that comes without his lips on mine

How will my body be without his touch

In the name of good things and love 

Let me have you boy
