I Only Have Eyes For You

My love…

 

Must be a kind of…

 

Blind love…

 

The words keep going through my head. Blind love? Blind and crazy.

 

Love? The thought disgusts me. Love that… that thing?  How could I ever have touched that body? Kissed those lips? If I could, I’d vomit at the very idea.

 

What I need is someone else. Someone new. Maybe someone old?

 

I can’t see anyone…

 

But you…

 

So many choices… so little time… Lust in their eyes and their hands on my body.

 

The hair is wrong, the eyes, the smile… They’re all wrong! Damn it! When did they all turn into the one I can’t have?

 

Can’t have? That’s a laugh… I can have anyone I want. I don’t want this one.

 

But they all disappear from view…

 

Don’t want… never wanted…

 

Then why does my body ache? Why does no one else feel right in my arms?

 

Why is the need so strong that I can’t… oh, fuck… see anyone else?

 

Why do I end up in this uncomfortable tree every night, staring in the window?

 

Because I only have eyes for you…

 

Just a glimpse… Only a glimpse... and I can deny it for one more night…
