Drawn into him
Day and night
Attraction, attention,
temptation
He was mine
Insides would glow
On the sight of him
In his glorified togetherness
I would begin to swim
Jealousy took over
When he talked about
her
That he seemed happy
Was the only succour
Oh, the suffering,
This heart endured
It does take courage to
love
What isn’t meant to be
yours!
