Confusion of You

The confusion of you has overwhelmed me
broke down all my defenses
and left me wondering
what if, and why did i decide to blow you off

did it have to do with a stronger suitor
a stronger potential for love and marriage
something that i believed would happen with you
but somehow never materialized

was there a relationship
or were you just a fuck buddy
that i developed feelings for
and overestimated the attraction

well today i let me guard slip
and fell into the confusion of you once again
your beautiful brown eyes
your amazing white smile

i was like a deer in headlights
at the confusion of you
your touch sent shivers through my very soul
blindsighting me and leaving me defenseless

it was all i could do to avoid your advances
but eventually overcame them after you
intitated all kinds of contact
guiltily i complied

confused, i regained my composure to look into your eyes
one last time
you're going away
and i'll never see you again

you tell me to take care
explain to me that you never failed me
that erica was a never part of your vocabulary
via text message you deny that we were only fuck buddies

you beg me to take you halfway home
but i can't comply
i have things to do
and one last time, what would i do

bid you farewell
and watch you walk away
from me forever
did i ever really win?

wasn't it i who ended this
who let you go
and moved on with my life
but in the confusion of you

all past emotions begin to flow back
but the sex wasn't as good as i remembered
but in the feelings for you remain
smaller than they used to be

but i'm painfully aware
that there is still a linger of you in my mind
confusing me,
bringing me to the brink of bottled mixed emotions

i'm over you
it's over
what we had was meant to be short term
but silly me, i always prolong the connection

thanks for being my stumbing block when i needed it
for occupying my time
and allowing me to say once that the gorgeous man sought me out
but for now, the confusion of you will remain locked, never to be opened again

we will never be
we never were
it was just a passing tide in the hands of time
it was good while it lasted, but must never be opened again
