I cannot ponder your ways
Have tried time and again
Gets me nowhere
Leaves me standin
Alone
You leave me with this emptiness
Cannot open your heart
The slightest bit
Now that’s no way to start
I could not have fathomed
This feeling
How do you do it
Why do they need
It’s really amazing
The power it holds
Those non spoken words
Leaving me with nothingness
Are you with me or not
Just would like to know
Not putting you on the spot
Just can’t let go
So tell me to leave
At least I’ll have direction
Since I still yearn to know you
Can’t fight this infection
Need a cure
Want to learn of your ways
You’re not even sure
Of what you need these days
Or maybe you know
Or knew from the start
Maybe you didn’t
Thought I was a part
A piece you could use
Or play with
For a while anyway
Without having to stay
Don’t give me
Any more
Than I already don’t have
What for
Is this what you want
Someone to lust
After you
Like some damn slut
Sorry honey
Don’t need it that much
Don’t like to play games
Just want your touch
But that’s ok
If you’re not prepared
For the drama that follows
Will leave no time spared
