Long nights spent with the thought of holding me so close
with your most obvious weakness
…your feelings…
wore on your sleeves so that everyone can see.
and if I don’t feel the same?
…you start shaking at the thought …
How can you describe to anyone else how you feel?
What will they say?
I’m just a friend.
At least that’s what they think…
“You are everything I want”
You tell me and I laugh
Cause you are everything I’m not
So are we too different?
and would this ever work?
we lay thinking of what could be…
Not thinking of what is…
we lay together …
This is what I want?
I wanted to be close.
just not too close
Its too close
how close is close enough ?
