Breathe

 I've seen you 

Every day this week

Been close

No reprieve 

Every time I think I’ve recovered

It sneaks in

Like a thief

Making my foolish heart believe 

If I knew the answer

Found some relief 

I could just breathe 

Suffocating on my love

Swallowing my pride

Because I like you here

Even if you can’t decide

Trying to play it cool

As if my mind

 is not occupied 

Things I desire

Pushed down, denied

Longing for your company

Just hang with me

Setting at the bar

Sharing adventures 

No need to leave 

I don’t need to breathe 

Accepting what it is

Drowning in my head 

Suffocating 

Choking on all these feelings.
