Losing


You
you don't love me
I was just something to do..
is that what you tell your girlfriends
when I'm not around?/

and you're not the least interested
baby..
but who are you trying to fool?
is that why you don't speak
when you see me with another girl...
and turn your smirk into a frown?/

I
I don't love you...
you're just something to do...
that's what I tell my friends
when you're not around..
and I'm not the least bit interested
baby...
but girl ,who am I trying to fool?
I'm just trying to be down.../

because I dream about you
throughout my lonely nights..
every night...
kissing you, holding you tight
and really I know.../

I feel something for you
you feel something for me too...
even though you pretend you don't..
and I certainly don't want to..
I'm fighting what I feel for you..
but I'm losing...
I'm losing that battle too...
and so are you.../

I don't need you
you're just someone with whom I was biding my time..
that's what I say when other people ask me what's goin
on...
and you tell the world that you could have anybody
else you want...
but baby when you see me, and I see the way you
won't look at me..
we both know that that's wrong..../

and I bet you dream about me..
every other night...
I bet you wake up hating
that we were making love and holding each other tight..
but girl you know, just like I know../

That I'm feelin something for you...
even though you say you don't want me to...
I'm fighting what I feel for you...]
but I, just like you
am losing...
losing that battle too!/

Love the poems..This poem and the short story was the cool down point after avery tense storyline.
Can't wait to see what lies next.
