Confused
by Jasper Braxton

Some days you seem so close
like you stand right before me
But then the next day you seem so far
like each other we can't see,
Each day is like a roller coaster
with my stomach turning upside down
You stand there looking
but yet you don't utter a sound,
I feel so confused and
my heart is being torn at its seams
And every night that I sleep
you seem to linger in my dreams,
Every time I look at you
I forget all my thoughts
And right then and there
it's you that my heart has sought,
Every time I hope
it turns into something bad
So for right now I'll stop thinking
And maybe things won't end up sad.

A note from the author

This is about a relationship I had recently, my girlfriend at the time made me so happy sometimes and then the next day she would be really angry at me for no reason. I tried hard for a while to overcome this but I gave up on her as she was too undecided in herself. The last line sums up how I feel about love now. "So for right now I'll stop thinking and maybe things won't end up sad."
