love unrequited

She hardly ever smiles
But it pleased me the few times she did
And so, I volunteered to make her happy
She didn't send out a RFP, I was self appointed
I grew more fond of her as time went by
And the closer we got
Soon after I realised, I thought about her more often than not
Like a crack addict, I'm hooked
I love me some her
so hard to focus, impatiently waiting for yet another moment together
Now I'm stuck in a rut, drowning in you
And you're saying you gotta let me go
But how do I strip myself from myself
You've become more a part of me than u know
Do I really have to?
Is there really no other way?
Any way we can just be?
I know I can make you happy
Yet she still insists...
And my heart breaks
Crumbling like the buildings after Haiti's earthquake
