severed enchantment

our conversations have become increasingly toxic
infatuation and lust don’t usually involve logic
and i know that you’ll never follow through on a promise
you keep my heart pushing daisies, but I show you calmness

because to this day it still tears me apart
that on every inch of me you left your mark
remember when I first picked up the pieces
and how no one could come between us?

I miss our impromptu masquerades
our interactions now just bandaids
and so the fascination is fading
i know it’s stupid for me to keep waiting

still if I could go back and rewind
I know I wouldn’t change my mind
I’m just tired of this back and forth
and one of us has to cut the cord

i wish you could tell me when you lost your heart
and why we can’t seem to try a fresh start
I’m so afraid to let you go
because loving you is all I know
