fresh air

inseparable,

like twists of a candy cane

unacceptable,

how we both became insane

undeniable,

each time I saw you I’d grin

undesirable,

how my walls are caving in

you walk out as I walk in

every time I try to begin

now I can barely even

look into those dark eyes again

you took my breath away,

now I’m barely breathing

I’m begging you to stay,

to see what I’m seeing

need to get some fresh air

to cope with what’s happened

I have had my fair share;

our shiny gold’s blackened

you took my breath away,

now I’m barely breathing

so much I had to say,

you muted my screaming

incomparable,

the connection that we had

unrepairable,

when it ended you were glad

undefinable,

I still don’t know what we are

undefiable,

like being trapped in the dark

you walk out as I walk in

you say I’m starved for attention

now I can barely even

think of what I want to mention

you took my breath away,

now I’m barely breathing

I’m begging you to stay,

to see what I’m seeing

need to get some fresh air

to cope with what’s happened

I have had my fair share;

our shiny gold’s blackened

you took my breath away,

now I’m barely breathing

so much I had to say,

you muted my screaming

now I can’t even speak without

fearing I did something wrong

like a fire I can’t put out

has it really been this long?

is it true that I’m this crazy?

or is this just another ploy?

without you, it’s all hazy

to you, was I just a playtoy?

you took my breath away,

now I’m barely breathing

done begging you to say,

to see what I was seeing

need to get some fresh air

to cope with what’s happened

I have had my fair share;

our shiny gold’s blackened

I just need some fresh air.
