Another Poem For Whomever Reads It And Takes It To Heart

I didn't think love was supposed to be like this
I thought that it was only a kiss
Can you still look at me the same way now?
I'm trying to look at you like I did before
But I don't know how
'Cause I can't get that night out of my mind

I say "maybe we could stay together if we just stay friends"
You say "don't you know when you fall in love the friendship ends?"
I don't know if that's true, I have a feeling it might be
So I'll try and take in all I can
Before we disappear

And now it's been two weeks since you last talked to me
And I'm confused on which you are, best friend, lover or arch enemy
Oh, and which you've labelled me
(Because here I am
Waiting to cool your fevered brow
And take your pale thin hand)
You're something precious I can't replace
Just try to find something that works almost as well
I can't breath unless you're breathing with me

Life is an adventure and I'm adventuring for sure
The question is, am I doing it alone
Or are you doing it with me?
(Will I live my life at home
Or out under the stars?
Do you want to sleep by the fire
Or roam, not knowing how far?)
