Hey Jade

You've mesmerized me
captured me, confused me
with your bright blue eyes
you don't know what you're doing to me.

I stumbled upon the thought
and it only took a day
for me to become
fully and completely swept away.

I feel a constriction
somewhere in my chest
knowing you exist
and fate must care for the rest

The world is unfair to decide
that I can't be with you
and that you can't and don't know this
yet these words still ring true.

I ache and pain to cross the ocean
and run into your arms
a place I have never yet called home
you've given me no promises
but captured me with your charms.

I ask myself, repeatedly
how I know this, without question
that I desire your presence
but yet is something I daren't mention.

You may never know what you've done
and this, perhaps, is the biggest wrong of all
I wish I could tell you
How I have fallen, and continue to fall.

For now, you'll reside in the back of my mind
possibly appearing in my dreams;
a memory in my life
from when things began to split at the seams.

I hope you remember me
in what way, I'm not sure
I'll remember you exactly,
perfectly, as you were.
