A little town north of nowhere

I took advantage
Of you, and us
To me, life is empty
Nothing but a routine
I think back, I still have those dreams
Of you and me, how close we were
You may not know it, but I felt for you
At the time, you were just a friend
Now, you're my best friend
The buzzer goes off, I move the laundry
From the dryer, to the basket
Things are all awry
I get my notebook, and write a little more
I can't stop thinking about you
Turn up the volume, sing along
Your favorite band, I always knew
I'm so strung out, I don't cry
Physically, but inside
My soul longs for you
I would give my last breath
Or heartbeat
To spend one last day with you
To be the "girl next door" again
I love you in a way
Not a relationship love
But a better kind
This love can't be broken, or fallen out of
Cats purring, thoughts swarming
My eyes grow heavy, I'm exhausted
I'm afraid to sleep, knowing I'll see you
Unaware of the reality, when I'm dreaming
Deep breaths, heavy sigh
I can't avoid you forever
So I'll see you in my dreams.

Very cool.  Love comes in so many ways, sometimes so strange and hard to realize...  You expressed that well.  Good write.

Wow... I love your style. It's actually something I haven't seen around here before, which makes it all the more interesting. Wonderful! It's so cliche, but I'm going to say it anyway - keep posting!
