^{I'm breathless.
The pain I feel is too much for me to take.

I'm breathless,
I don't know what I can do-
I never wanted to fall in love with you.

I'm breathless:
I knew this would happen,
I expected it from the start,
I shouldn't have let you in,
But now you're the only one who can break my heart.

You know that I love you,
& I know that you love me, too,
But we can't be together,
We're too far apart.

We should have known better, baby.
Now I have to get myself over you.

You told me that you'd always love me,
But that night when you left, babe, you said that you hated me.
Part of me wishes that had been true,
'Cause then I would have never realized how deeply in love I am with you.}
_{{Ignorance really was bliss}}
^{It would have been better if we had just stayed away,
But just like in that song you sent me,
Your arms are like home to me,
& That's the only place I want to be.

But now you've gone away,
You've gone away and left me breathless,
'Cause the pain-it's just too intense.

I miss you but I know that in this case, I can't have what I want.

I'm breathless,
& It's all because I can't have you.}

I've written way too many poems about this person. Honestly.

He was a very important person in my life, but still. I've written a TON of poems about him. o.e
