You're so much like him
This other boy who has held my heart for so long
But the differences are glaring
That's not a bad thing
But I feel guilty around you
Knowing I don't deserve your company
Knowing I'm being selfish again
He's everything I've ever wanted
But you're so much more
And even though I love you
I'm afraid to fall again
I can't imagine feeling worse than I do
I keep returning to the contrast and compare
Maybe this all started because of the similarities
The differences are even more dear
I feel trapped in a love triangle
A soap opera in my head
Neither of you show any feelings out right
But knowing you as I do
Being who and what I am
I can feel the ties that bind growing between us
I'm scared as hell of starting this again
We both have hearts of glass
But
If you're for it....
"My heart is broke
but I have some glue
Help me inhale
and mend it with you"
