The only itch I could never scratch

Was the itch of wanting you.

My mom always told me, "you cannot help how you feel, but you can always help what you do about that feeling."

You were wrong for me in so many ways

But it felt right

You were never what I had dreamed of

But it felt like a much better dream

You would never love me

But in the moment you looked at me.. I felt... I knew I could love you forever.

But I wouldn't.

You are the itch I can't scratch

So I won't even try.

A heart as fortified as mine

Could never reach a heart as free as yours.
