Love Poem: Dysfunctional

Dysfunctional

I think it would be simpler 
if I did not hear from you anyone 
but than my heart would be bored

I think if I could cut this cord 
than I'd start missing the dial tone

I get headaches from just being around you
but to hear silence I'd rather go deaf

We talk it out, we work it out
          eventually 
But there is no you without me

I'd rather be a ghost and even than 
I'd haunt you for eternity. 

So why I am even pretending
that this could ever end? 

You may be sin but your 
       the sin that I'm into 

So just pull the trigger 
if you want to say goodbye

Otherwise keep feeding me 
           more lies
