Author's Notes: Was inspired by the preview for the upcoming Valentine's Day ep. Could be from either Xander or Cordelia's point of view, but I'm leaning towards Cordy.
How much longer can I yearn for your touch?
How can we kid ourselves this much?
You and I are water and fire
And any chance of a future looks dire.
We'll never be known as the loving couple;
Being together, we're only headed for trouble.
Only in private can we be affectionate and free,
Trapped in a love that can never be.
When it seems that all we do is fight,
How can this possibly feel so right?
Even when we treat each other like dirt,
How can I want you so bad, it hurts?
This can't go on; something has to change.
Already, the looks people give us are strange.
They know something's up, I can tell,
And we can no longer pretend everything is well...
