BREATHLESS

Letting the fire burn out

You're slipping through my fingers

Another name in your little black book

Like a memory that shortly lingers



You robbed me of my innocence

And yet I still anticipate your return

It's a bittersweet infatuation

My heart for you will forever burn



Like a fish out of water

I cannot breathe by your side

I crave your love

An unreciprocated feeling I cannot hide.
