Love Poem: You

You

YOU
Everything is about you
The way you talk
The way you smile
The way you laugh 
The way you walk
The way your eyes can read me like a book
The way the touch of your hand can make me tingle
The way your skin against mine helps me sleep at night 

But when youre not here
I cant think
I cant eat 
I cant sleep 
I can barely breath
I cant funtion properly 

I miss you
You, just you 
When youre far away
I feel like a piece of me is gone
You get me like no one else
You let me push your buttons 
without exploding 
I cant get to you
You have no idea how that makes me feel 
Youre so different

Different 
Why are you different 
Why cant you be the same
Why do you make me feel this way
Why do you make me feel so 
Different 

Im not perfect 
I cant be perfect 
Im full of flaws
From my head to my toes
But so are you 
I overlook them 
I dont know why 
I look at you and for some reason 
All I see is perfect 

You drive me nuts
Insane 
Crazy 
Irrational 
Why, just why
Why do you make me feel this way
I cant explain it 

I want you 
but I cant have you
You dont want me 
And it tears me apart
I need you 
But you dont need me 

How you make me feel 
Is undescribable 
I cant use words
Or physical movement
To show what you mean to me 

In the end I know I'm a joke
You dont want me 
and you never will
I sit here 
and let myself suffer 
Hoping you'd change your mind 
But in the end it's all a joke 

How can I love you
when you dont love me too
