Convoluted

I want to talk to you but I am running out of things to say.. 
This is driving me crazy, the thoughts are everyday. 
Get out of my head and leave me be, why am I acting so crazy? 
I try to find reasons to talk to you and I can't bring myself to stop .. 
No matter what I do, you always come out on top. 
I normally have control over my mind, body and soul but with you.. 
I feel like my life is out of control and I feel so blue, I want to 
be with you..smell you, taste you. 
I lay awake fantasizing about you, my thoughts always turn to you.. 
How can this be? You are so far from me. We had but just a few moments 
in time but they replay in my mind. I long to kiss your lips and run my 
fingertips down your spine, tingling every sensation and making you mine. 
I feel so horrible about these feelings I feel, I do not want this 
to be real. Writing will help me heal.
