Burning Wax
I cling on to every last vestige of you
Every small morsel you allow
Because despite what I might say, I still love you
Though youll never hear me say that out loud
Sometimes I think that it is unhealthy
Other times, a noble sentiment
I stand accused of not being able to move on
That it will be to my own detriment
But, I dont hold out hope that things will change
Im very rational about it
Reversing back into unrequited love
That at one stage was quite requited
I dont know whether Id get back with you
Even if I had the choice to accept or to spurn
Because if you hold a candle for far too long
Its not just the wax that ends up getting burnt
Whether to relive past mistakes
In the hope that they are righted in the future
Theres nothing wrong with me still loving you
Even if Im no longer tailored to be your suitor.
