You really have a way with words.

The way you speak makes my eyes light up and my heartbeat rattle my brain.

Usually not one for sweet nothings but the truth hurts.

I know it’s only temporary.

Green eyes and ominous sighs telling me what I already knew.

Just lie to me.

Please. Lie to me.

I had just gotten used to the way everything reminds me of you.

Now is not the time to remind me you want nothing long term.

You hold me but your touch has gone cold.

Please just for the night

Lie to me.
