How my poor heart aches
Since you've gone, I've been lost without a trace / I dream at night, I can only see your face. / I look around, but it's you I can't replace / I feel so cold, and I long for your embrace. / I keep crying baby, baby please.
What’s the matter with me?
Is it my imagination? Is it the pasta I had for dinner?
Or is what I’m feeling real?
Last night, I wasn’t able to fall asleep. I kept imagining you in the throes of passion. With someone else.
And why shouldn’t you? You’re so young. So beautiful. So desirable. Why can’t I express my desire?
Now you’re no longer thinking of me. No longer my girl. At least not last night. I have failed you.
I thought I was over… jealousy.
Yet, we seem(ed) to be entangled—somehow. You send a message when I think of you. I’ll wake up when you read mine.
Something is missing though. It’s not you, it’s me. I have failed your test(s).
I may never be ready when someone I genuinely like walks into my life. Lands on my hand. Like a butterfly.
Last night was rare. I can feel that you aren’t thinking of me.
Perhaps you are not my girl. Perhaps I failed to give you what you needed when you needed it…
Stop it.
Yes, love is fleeting. Yes, I adore her. Yes, there will be others. There are always other girls.
Ohh. If only we could have the pleasure… without the pain.
