Stuck On You Poem by John Sensele

My resolve recedes
When I crush you in my arms
At sentimental speeds
That rush head on despite my qualms.

Silly I crush
Whenever we entwine
Fumbling and mumbling the hush
We heal as we sip our whimsical wine.

Can't understand why
I won't stay away from you
No matter how hard I try
Rebelling to embrace someone new.

The look in your eyes
Kills the determination I feel
When I feel our love flies
To the next skill you seal.

Fighting a losing battle
So long as I push you away
Claiming to cut off the mantle
That from you loses its way.

Can't help myself no more
Hoping against hope
To shove you off from the core
You melt in my heart like dopamine dope.
