I stand myself forcing to stay
still, and think of you
I’ve seen the end of us
I impose to my mind the craving of your
attention, as you are more than a friend
you are an excuse
a distraction

Go on, say goodbye
to the one that i love,
here

Pretend that i love you more
than i tolerate you
even more so than i can tolerate myself
without anyone,
seeing the pain in my eyes when
I’m next to you.
without witnesses

As when you look at me,
you can only be your own
reflection.
