If All Else Fails

More Than A Friend

If All Else Fails


I like to be seen with you. 
You make me feel important. 
A sense of superficiality. 
I'm looked upon with disdain when 
I am in your absence. 
To put it frankly you complete me. 
I'll see you there. 
You'll be around. 
The place where I first met you. 
I'd like to be more than a friend, 
but you keep pushing me away. 
I try to prove, 
in spite of you, 
that I am finally right this time. 
Obdurate ways would get me there? How? 
I know you won't let me. 
You know you're a part of me, 
kept apart only by instinct. 
Feeling incomplete since you left my side. 
I try to complete my life. 
Your remnants always taunt me. 
Get my ass off the couch, believe me I've tried.
