Food

I always find myself getting overemotional around you

It's like...
Food
You
Need it on a basic level but
It's a little more complex than that
You can go minutes, hours and days without it.
Only,
The cravings that escape the flavours of those molecules
Drawing you closer to it,
Till all you're left with is the bit at the end
Promised yourself you'd be on the mend
Waiting for the day your heart will send the message

No more
Heartbreak
Knocking at your door
Hysteria
That makes you bounce off the floor
Tours down memory lane leaving you as confused as before

So like food, I want you
However, I need you
Like air
The breath from your lips is the breeze through my hair

And what I love most is I can't help but stare
As you're trying on your tie
Cooking something nice
Or when I see that glint in your eye from the words on that page

At this stage
I more than love you
And you know that, too

Though I don't know how to tell you that I wanna take it to the next level
Where we don't have to separate or plan when I can next taste your kiss
I'm so tired of missing you
Hence,
Like the baby I am
The only way to show I'm your fan

Is to cry when you leave.
