emotional inclinations

we’re all searching for love
but keep making the same mistakes
is that something you’re proud of
recklessly causing your own heartbreaks

I don’t know why I carry on our conversations
or why you keep contacting me
we’re just adding cracks to our foundation
instead of setting each other free

but I’d rather you know
than wonder about what could be
so before you’re someone I outgrow
I need you to realize what you meant to me

each time I’ve fallen for you
I loved you with my entire essence
but I wish you’d learn how to follow through
we’ve always been each other’s antidepressant

and each time I see your name
I elatedly set myself up for the disappointment
but I interact and play your stupid games
because it’s nice being immersed in your entertainment

so while the feelings flee
I still keep a string around you
because a part of me feels we’re meant to be
and I know in moments you feel it too
