Things I Can't Have

There are a lot of things I can't have:

You

Your love

Your care.

I shouldn't be allowed your smile

Or to ask you truth or dare.

I shouldn't be given your warmth

Or your adoration;

I can't be trusted with precious things

They're my annihilation.

I want you so badly

But I haven't earned you yet.

I did a lot of things

That maybe I regret.

I want to make it right

But every time I try

I only make it worse;

I have no alibi.

    Dancing

    Two kids

    The song

    The beat

    The rhythm

    You know the rhythm, don't you?

    Pulling you up

    Pulling you to me

    Out there

    I know it's scary

    Couldn't we let go and not care

    Just for tonight?

    Giddy

    Giddy is the exhilaration

    Thinking about you

    Getting excited

    For what, I don't know

    Counting down the days until I can see you again

    (Summer is hard)

    Reading love stories

    Listening to love songs

    I cried

    I cried.

    I looked at the photos,

    The Polaroids,

    And I cried

    And cried

    And cried.

    I couldn't feel anything.

    My heart was bleeding

    And I couldn't feel it.

    I cried

    Emotionless
