The Death of Me
A Poem
You are going to be the death of me
But there is nothing I can do
I cannot control my feelings for you
Nor pretend they don't exist
I cannot lie
Not even to myself
I don't want to find someone else
For a carefree rendezvous
Or for anything more
I think about it from time to time
when you seem so terribly far away
But all my body wants is you
I close my eyes and see your face
I try to close my heart to no avail
You are all I want
You are all I need
and if I don't see you soon
If I can't hold you in my arms
I do believe you are really going to be the death of me.
But there is nothing I can do
I cannot control my feelings for you
Nor pretend they don't exist
I cannot lie
Not even to myself
I don't want to find someone else
For a carefree rendezvous
Or for anything more
I think about it from time to time
when you seem so terribly far away
But all my body wants is you
I close my eyes and see your face
I try to close my heart to no avail
You are all I want
You are all I need
and if I don't see you soon
If I can't hold you in my arms
I do believe you are really going to be the death of me.
