i can, i will, i do


Believe me
God, I love you
I cannot imagine not touching you
Not holding you
Not experiencing you
every day of my life
Believe me when I tell you
I’m sorry
I love you
I love you
I love you
Oh God
You cannot realize how tortured
I have been
Watching you wondering
I know you worry
Don’t worry
Please
I love you
Do you need to know more
Do you need to know what I’ve done
No more, please
No more
I can’t tell you more
It will hurt you
Just stop worrying
Just stop
Just let me love you
Forget about the rest
I know
It would be easier to forget
if you knew
What it was
That it’s over
But I can’t tell you that
Not yet
Not ever
I can’t hurt you like that
I won’t
I have
I know
I know you know
Oh God
This torture
This lie
Oh God, I love you
Like no one else
Like you deserve to be loved
I do
I do
I know there is no one like you
I have looked
And you know that
Something inside you told you
I was looking
Oh God
I was so dumb
I’m so sorry
I’m stuck in it now
Damn
God damn
I don’t know what to do
I thought I was good, so good
I love you
I would never hurt you
I did
I know
I’m sorry
I’ll stop
I’ll try
I want to stop
I want to love you, only you
I don’t know how to stop
I don’t know if I can
I don’t know if I’m made for that
I am
I am
Oh God
I love you
I can love you, only you
I can
I will
I do.
