A Reason

I can smell smoke on the hoodie that you lent me. Usually that'd bother me, but it's easy to ignore when it's yours. Do I really need a reason to want to be with you this often? Some things are better left unprocessed – let's just leave this like we found it.
It's too big for you, but just right for me. I'll "accidentally" keep it in my back seat and give myself an excuse to bring it back to you. Do I really need a reason to want to be with you this often? Some things are better left unprocessed – let's just leave this like we found it.

Comfortable

I spend most of my time in one of three places. I daydream my bedroom, or touching you. We're creatures of habit, and I'd rather embrace that than understand it, but I see reasons why I might want to change that. But it's so comfortable, putting it all off until Sunday again. Do you envy the same things that I do? An ignorance that lets you think everything's going to be alright?
I spend most of my thoughts on one of three (3) questions:
1. Did I do this to myself?
2. Can I fix it?
3. Has it always been this way?
Like a comforter too thin to keep you warm, I always seem to ask for more. As soon as I think I've had enough, I just start putting it all off... Do you envy the same things that I do? An ignorance that lets you think everything's going to be alright?
