Anxiety Source

The poem of Jello (I'm an on no medication I swear). Originally written on 5/10/2010.

To think of you is to think at all
To remember you is to remember it all
To like you is to read your clever words
To love you is to see your face
To forget you is to end my life
For you are my anxiety source,
Now and forever more
But it's not your fault entirely
For you are a crime from no criminal
A songbook without any lyrics
A novel without a title,
So I had no choice but to read.
So I read about the anxiety source,
And now I'm paying the price.
It may not make sense to anyone
But it's everything to me,
Therefore I do not care.
Because you are my anxiety source,
Now and forever more.
And nothing can change that,
Absolutely nothing at all.

I see this as loving someone who hurts you, someone who is bad for you, but you love them so dearly. I see where you're coming from with this. The way you outlined each of the lines in this poem faintly reminds me of "The Victor" by: C.W. Longenecker.
Great job!
