Spell

I hate not waking up beside him.

It's like I'm stuck in a cycle of one-night stands.

Nobody can break the curse,

I'm stuck in a 24 hour period of love.

I call for him the next day but he's already gone,

Dissipated into thin air.

Oh, how fragile my love is,

emotionally unavailable only for the stable.

I patiently wait for the one who will not play this game,

the one I cling to for love.

My heart is breaking at every touch,

although he says it's fine I want this,

don't I?

I was only meant for lust,

a prize easily won.

They make me feel beautiful for an hour,

but retreat at the thought of forever.

We never speak again.

I long for the day when he breaks the spell on me,

for the day when the One finally,

Stays.
