Tormenting thoughts of you
Plague my mind every night
Every waking moment spent
Day dreaming of you
My heart cries your name
Lost and confused
Not sure what to do
Or what to say
My soul sighs with insecurities
I'm falling, falling fast
Spiraling out of control
Ignoring my longing
Neglecting my desires
Smothering my passion
Drowning myself in denial
Holding back the tears
Wearing a mask
Disguising the truth
Refusing to admit
All you do to me
Each I turn around
I see you standing there
In the distance
I hear your voice
Wrapped in my blanket
Embraced in its warmth
Imagining it were you
Continually crying
Into my pillow
Never saying anything
Vowing myself to silence
Fearing your response
I leave myself to dwell alone
Within the silence, consumed
By the solitary confinements
Of my heart's confession
