I love you
By: Sami J LaRose

If loving you is like a disease than I've been sick forever.
Falling in love with you each day only turns my heart more tender.
As the smiles turn into frowns
you feel as if your whole world has been flipped upside down.
Trapped in what seems like a never ending cycle;
Fall in love, get hurt, start over
Sometimes that's the only way I could feel sober.
As the nights get later, my hope vanishes into space
Another sleepless night alone is disgrace. 
Call it lust, call it love
Doesn't matter to me,
Do whatever you want as long as it makes you happy;
Just don't forget about me and all of our memories.
At once we loved deeply, laughed loudly, and had fun
But times have changed and there is no longer any sun
It's six P.M out past sunset, and the beautiful twilight starts to set into effect
A shooting star passes you by, you gently look up and stare at the sky 
Make a wish, make a wish and only hope that it will come true
Too bad it's only another wish about you
