He still doesn't know I love him..
he doesn't know I still think about the day we met
he doesn't know i made a promise to myself
never to love him like i did before.
well it's safe to say i broke my promise
i fell in love with the way he said my name
the way he wrapped his arms around me
the name calling and teasing made all the memories real again
He doesn't know I love him
He just doesn't know
when i get high, he's all i talk about
high words are sober thoughts, right?
I can't seem to shake him,
he's like a cough that can't be cured
with cough syrup
a fever that keeps rising in temperature
the feeling when he caresses my neck,
makes me melt every time
makes me pour into the cracks of his teeth
he only grins when i look
laughs when i talk
rolls his eyes at my attitude
uses his affection to break into my heart
He doesn’t know he tricked me..
started typing when I had enough
said all the right things
as soon as shit got tough
He made promises
ones he couldn’t keep
But he doesn’t know he loves me
The way he laughed when he was with me
The way I made him smile
I made him want to make promises
I broke him down
I took every last ounce of love he could give
I promised myself I’d never let him hurt me
not again
So I had to show him
Show him what hurt was
Show him he couldn’t get me
He doesn’t know he loves me
but what I do know for damn sure is
he’ll find out soon
