Wishful Thinking

by Imani   Jun 18, 2007


I have no clue
what to do
with myself
without you.

I have too much dignity
too much pep in my stride,
my head's too high
to say something like you complete me.
But without you I feel like a waste of space.

I changed into a form of your life support.
and you unknowingly were mine.
Now you're on a new plug.
A new door has opened up for you.
You're happy with her.
I should move on,
but my plug is still stuck.

I can't help it.
For some unexplainable reason,
I don't wish she was me
but i really miss your company.

With your attention
and your focus,
I didn't need a superstar's spotlight.
Your smile was always good enough.
I never needed anything else.
Never desired someone so much
not enough to look past every flaw they have.
Not enough to forgive them for stuff they even havent done yet.

I don't understand
and I find it hard to explain.
But one thing I do know is that
I still love you
and I always will.

You were my knight in shining armor.
No matter who else you talked to
or love(d)
they'll never love you as much as I do.
They might match me word for word.
But if only I could take out my heart
and SHOW you the imprints you've made.
If only i could hold my mind
and give it to you
just to show you
how often you come to my mind.
If only
I could have recorded my thoughts
and those lonely nights
so you could see
what us breaking up did to me.
