Overtaken

You seem like a stranger
to me
and I don't know what went wrong.
Go hide away and leave me
miserable,
wanting,
starving
for you.

Why did I think any of this was real--
maybe because the pain seemed to really exist,
the pleasure extraordinary,
the time neverending.

I tried to forget me,
but apparently it doesn't work.
I tried to leave,
but I can't.
It's up to you to change this,
because your world is strange to me,
and I am drowning in it.

Kick me out
if you want,
but don't leave me here
stranded,
afraid,
confused,
and incomplete,
cause with you somewhat there,
I am only somewhat alive,
and that just isn't fair.

You lock yourself away
and expect me to understand,
but I can't.
My mind is small,
my fear is large,
and both are swallowing my logic--
But is logic what I need?
Shouldn't this all seem natural,
shouldn't this be easier?

I am overtaken with
one thought:
I want you.
Back home!
