Yes you!

A poem for you

What you do to me
I can't get my head around it
I never could have thought 
That i'll feel it this much
Incomplete but I'm content
I wish i knew how to pretend
Then I wouldn't have to tell you now...but 
Don't make me share the half i've got
Cos then I would have so little of you
Maybe I'm greedy, maybe i'm selfish too
Or rather, I should get a hold of myself 
Truth is, until I can unfeel, i'm powerless 
You have her, i'm happy about that 
But all those others...simply make me sad
