Maybe I will wait.

Our lips are closed and yet there is so much being said.
Your gaze meets mine; I can feel my face flush with red.
I can't even move because I am afraid you'll fade.
Into a distant color, just a dull shade.

Playing the role of a friend, afraid to utter what I need to say.
My feelings have become so very cliche
Whenever I need a smile you say the right things, to warm my heart
Everything's different about you, I could tell from the very start.

Afraid to lose something that's already so great
Whenever I am about to say something, I hesitate.
Talking with you, is pure satisfaction
My dialogue and cheesy smile shows obvious attraction.

Honestly,I want to tell you, I want to be poetic, in all that is true.
I want to say how much you mean, but for me, it's so hard to do.
I've tried disguising my feelings, said I moved on.
Really I haven't; they never left, they are not gone.

I wish you could see who and what you really are.
You've given me so much; you're a wish come true, from a shooting star.
A friend who is at my side without a moments pause.
You have stuck by me even after finding out my flaws.

I've never been good with guessing my destiny or fate.
I will let time work, and see what happens, if I just wait.
Maybe you will too notice, what I have come to learn.
That the truth is right in front of you; you can't be scared to love and be loved in return
