Xavier

She makes me crawl, like a beggar on the sidewalk
A smile in my heart, even when we have the small talk
She makes me feel like I'm not a man without her
In my mind I hear the sarcasm of distant laughters

So on I walk, with my head under a dark cloud
I hide in shame, without her I can not feel proud
She burns my emotions like a house that's on fire
Raging with passion, brings me lower, takes me higher

So is this love or another infatuation
The thoughts of her linger in my meditations
Just like a virus spreading in my conversations
She makes me hunger for her love in deep frustration

She makes me feel like i cannot live without her
Like if she is not there, my life is a disaster
So am I in limbo, or is this just an illusion?
She will not ever set me free from this confusion

Her absence makes me feel alone and paranoid
And when she is gone, my heart is left with a dark void
She says that we bring out the worst out of each other
She makes me feel that for me, there is no other

And through this turmoil I forget that I'm a young man
That I have the strength to forget her in an instance
Can I break free from the chains she's put around me?
Oh sweet Xavier, she's my bliss and my misery
