Infatuation
I can’t quit you.
It’s as simple as that,
and i’m not sure
what it is that’s
pulling
me
back
to you.
Is it,
the way you style your hair?
Or,
the way you smile?
Or,
the way you wear those button-up shirts
with the sleeves rolled up
that I like so much?
Or,
Maybe
this powerful magnet,
relentlessly
pulling
me
back
to you,
is the way you made me feel.
That excited,
overwhelming,
rapturous,
anxiety inducing feeling,
that both makes me feel
more confident than ever before
but also made me question
my every move.
Yes,
I’m infatuated
with that beautiful feeling.
And that is why
I can’t quit you.
