Mesmerized, that’s what I am
Mesmerized, Cupid’s arrow spreading love so grand
Mesmerized, love’s tendrils in my brain remain
Mesmerized, I want this to work, escape heartache’s chain
Mesmerized, “have hope,” they say, or “just be yourself”
Mesmerized, but doubt clings on, threatening my inner health
Mesmerized, its jagged claws tighten, their grip so slick
Mesmerized, I don’t want to be left once more with unrequited love’s vicious trick
Mesmerized, love’s cruel dagger leaves me staggered
Mesmerized, yet I’m hopeful still, facing a potential final chapter
