Lust Makes Me...

…respond to your emails even though it’s been 7 months since I’ve even seen you, and 2 months since you so callously told me you’d gotten back together with your ex.

…call you in the evening, inquiring about your plans, threatening to come over and steal a kiss or two

…give in to your touch, even though you are not my aesthetic ideal

…allow you to fall in love with me, knowing full well my feelings for you are false and fleeting

…so crazy as to believe that what we have is or could ever be anything more than just lust.

*smooches...learning to back away slowly from lustful thoughts*
------------
in my experience, nothing good ever comes of it. Exhibit A: I had my first child in college...

Why back away? Don't fight the feelin'! I don't. :D

No need to fight it, you can't always control it.

And this right here is not a lustful feeling "so crazy as to believe that what we have is or could ever be anything more than just lust." --- I'm just sayin'
