"Lovesick"
by Arieanna Tambriz
I still have your number.
We haven’t talked in ages
guess we’re finally through,
But I’d be lying if I said
you were easy to forget.
I’ve tried to block all our memories
but they’re my only muse.
I’ve seen you walking.
countless times where
you and I have passed by.
and I know you know I know
this isn’t the same no more,
but this couldn’t be over
even if we tried.
broken bonds, should we make amends,
or is it too late to fix this mess?
“let’s give it another go… just as friends.”
am I being too forward if I just press “send”?
but why should we pretend like nothing happened,
press fast forward, right past it?
fight the feeling, tragic.
I don’t wanna think anymore.
why should I go tell my friends you’re plastic,
nothing more than a past ick?
lying to no end, it’s drastic.
I still love you I,
I still love you I…
lately I've been trying to move on,
as of recent I feel gone.
trying to light a burnt out flame
with another was a waste
like driving a car with kerosene.
I swear I'm nothing close to conceited,
just slightly self centered with a good reason.
I find it hard to find feelings
outside my own for you.
receiving all kinds of attention,
is this divine intervention
telling me to finally find someone new?
but I just can’t move on,
not when you tell me you can’t too.
so why should we pretend like nothing happened,
press fast forward, right past it?
fight the feeling, tragic.
I don’t wanna think anymore.
why should I go tell my friends you’re plastic,
nothing more than a past ick?
lying to no end, it’s drastic.
I still love you I,
I still love you and I’m sick.
I'm lovesick,
and I miss you like a kid.
I’m lovesick.
Why can’t we pretend we’re hopeless romantics?
Press rewind, and go back to it?
Hiding feelings? We’re past it.
I still love you I…
