Unwanted



I know you don’t want me
How I’ve wanted you
You tell me I’m the one
But I know you’re as good as done

I can’t do this anymore
Pretend that we have a life
And lie to ourselves furthermore
But damn you made me your wife

You’ve never craved my soul
Only busted a nut as you needed
Every other time we did it
My soul felt cheated

Sex will never be the same with you
It’s what I’ve come to believe
I wonder who you think about
When you complete the act to relieve

I’m tired of feeling this way
My body needs more
I still want it from you
But it needs to come from your core

I need you to change this
And make our sex life better
But every time we kiss
My heart is in a state of shatter

Please tell me I’m enough
So I can renew my hope
That you will crave me
And our souls can interlope
