Beggars Cannot Be Choosers

and we try to dismiss the feeling pick and choose another distraction

By

Jose Chomali

in the end
we will both lose

the universe hands us love
and we try to dismiss the feeling
pick and choose another distraction
to use and abuse
you want someone
who can calm you down
who is not like me
I am too much of a fire
to be the one you desire
shake you up
make you crazy
your bullshit love
makes me lazy

yet here I stand
wanting to be in your company
because you looked inside
understood the rollercoaster ride
of my emotional, chaotic side
I want you because you know
what it feels like to be like me

in the end
this is only going to kill me Thought Catalog Logo Mark
