Grasping At Strings

by Lost Shadow   Aug 7, 2020


I shouldn't be afraid to lose you
You weren't mine to begin with

Confused about everything
I thought I knew what I was doing

You've got me tossing and turning
Wondering what's happening

Staring at your eyes hoping to find answers
But now I'm more lost than ever

Drowning in these conflicting feelings
Getting so many mixed signals

Desperately pulling at strings
Waiting for something to happen

Questioning if I'm doing this to myself
Making something out of nothing

Craving your attention
Pleading for affection

Don't leave me outside in the cold
Let me in , share your warmth

You know there's something there
Don't pretend not to see it
