It’s Not Romance

It’s not romance

It’s adventure

I always was an explorer

Terrain rediscovered

My body is bare

But I know in the morning

You wont be here

 

Not that high up

Yet I’m falling

I always did lose my footing

Balance regained

You drop me a line

I know I don’t need to

But I reach every time

 

You don’t have to ask

I’m still telling

I always tend to speak my mind

I feel like a fool

But can’t stop caring

You’re under-enthused

And I’m oversharing

 

I untangle the web

You re-spin it

I always was fond of the hunt

But I cannot resist you

I’m caught up inside

The hunger’s insatiable

You eat me alive

 

It’s not bittersweet

Just bitter

I always had a taste for that

The words fall out

My mouth is dry

You look so refreshing

But I know it’s a lie

 

“It’s not romance

It’s adventure”

So, why am I feeling this way

Say it enough

Let it sink in

Repeat the words

… Emotions still win
