Unrequited

 

Understand that I don’t want to feel this

Not when you don’t

Remind me what pulled me to you, like a boat to the shore

Excitement, heart races, but for what?

Quiets my mind when you avoid my gaze

Understate my affection for you as friendship, lie to your friends

I did

Tension washes through the room, sucking the conversation

End this game of pain

Decisions made, but why are you still in my dreams?
