Poetics by jadeee

If were up to me,
And if it was my choice,
I’d take away every thought of you,
And take away that little voice,
The one inside my head,
That guides my every move,
It is the voice of my heart,
Screaming out ‘I love you’

If it were up to me,
I’d take you out of my dreams,
You know the one’s were you save the day,
And protect me from my scares and screams,
The one where you’re my prince,
And you wake me from my sleep,
If only I had the strength to take them away,
But I’m afraid I’m in too deep,

If it were up to me,
I’d take away that smile,
The one I get when I talk to you,
Even just for a little while,
The way you can say anything,
And the way you smile at me too,
It’s the way you do all these things to me,
That makes me want to be with you,
If it were up to me,
I’d stop wanting you so bad,
But I know deep down if I stop,
It will make me very sad,
Because in my heart I truly crave,
To know what we could be,
But deep down I know,
None of this will ever be up to me.
