Smitten

Staring at my phone,

Waiting for a text.

I was no one's to own,

Waiting to be someone's next.

Feels like we're too close,

Yet too far.

She was the one you chose,

And now you're just a star.

The strings are broken,

But we're still trying to play music.

The doors are left open,

Can't close them because I'm too sick.

Sick of being lost,

In my own thoughts.

Didn't worry about the cost,

I just drank too many shots.

Fell in love and now I'm being queer,

Acting a bit strange and sometimes even weird.

Though, no one is sheer.

In my mind, your shadows appeared.

I tried my best to fake a smile,

No one noticed as they weren't mine.

You came in with your own style,

With a bright light and there you shine.

Watched you sway the world,

Like it was yours.

I saw your smile and then I swirled,

Getting over you took millions of hours.

We're singing along to a song,

And the lyrics aren't even written.

This feeling is so strong,

Now I'm smitten.
