If I had to choose between you and living
I would choose you
And it’s not because I’m suicidal
Trust me when I say that I love you
Love you enough to live for you
And through a never-ending maze I chase you
Ready to play games for you
I can’t see an escape because these is no escape
But I don’t need an escape, I got you
And I’ve lost the ability to breathe since I met you
But I don’t need air, I got you
Breathing you in like the nicotine that your lungs are addicted to
I’m addicted to you
I haven’t slept in months
Staying up all night writing poems
Poems with your name printed on them
But you don’t read
And I can’t write
And if I sing
You can’t hear
And if I dance
You can’t see
Always an excuse
For you to run away from me
Always a choice
For you not to love me
If I had to choose between you and living
I would choose you
Its maybe because I’m suicidal
My therapist thinks I’m self-destructive
And I can’t deny that
Why else would I choose you?
