This is today,
a decision I did not make to wake up to
but still I did
and it feels like the night's surroundings weren't real.
How could I have let you feel me again?
I had decided to be cool beneath the caress of your lips
to dodge the way you always made me loose the guardian frown I poked at you.
How could I have let your kiss
make a rise of feelings overflow again
and wish I had never left your arms.
And how
~~just how~~
can I sit right here
having had you yesterday
and lost you again today,
still knowing that I can be okay without your presence.
I've lost control again.
You got into a good moment in my soul
and shoved it in my face
with the sigh of your head on my comfort shoulder.
I don't need you anymore
but I'm all trapped up
in your need for me
and its sending my heart static signals.
...leaves me wondering...
Do I ever really let go
or is a picture of everyone I ever loved
stapled in a steadfast grip on my heart?
I'm all trapped up in your need for me
and its playing tricks on the visions of where I was going.

~~I Love You~~
