Welcome to My Poetry Site
All I Can Do Is Make Believe
A hundred times I’ve tried convincing myself I’m not in love with him to avoid the pain
but the truth is that the love I have growing for him lives in my veins
hes an understanding craving buried like a jewel in my heart
an undying ache in my soul i feel everytime when we're apart
Something like a sweet sickness that rushes through my blood
visions of him pressed in my memory like heavy footprints in mud
I wake and fall asleep to his face get lost in my thoughts of him like floating through space
Its a deep dwelling feeling I simply don’t care to replace
These feelings for him burning my insides like potent mace
I sleep and wake up scared from dreams like a child
trying to put it out my head before it drives me wild
but I cant because I know how much I want to remember
images burned behind my eyelids like hot embers
and trying to forget only makes me think of this man more
impure thoughts and desires start a fire from the pit of my core
blessed with the tools to more than fulfill my needs,
a gangsta and a gentleman that brings weakness to my knees
Cant comprehend why I’m driving myself crazy;I truly dont know
hoping that the insanity I feel doesnt pour over and show
Sometimes I wish he would just take his memory and leave
but he doesnt so all I can do is make believe
