Not because
August 29, 2018
Boom, boom, boom.
My head aches the more I think of you.
Not because you’re bad,
But because you’re too good.
Thud, thud, thud.
My heart can’t handle you’re presence.
Not because you scare me,
But because you excite me.
Shuffle, shuffle, shuffle.
My feet drag them away from you.
Not because they want to,
But because they have to.
Splat, splat, splat.
My eyes drain themselves.
Not because you hurt me,
But because you touched me without using your hands.
