Him

You've promised me many things,
But you don't always keep your word,
I hang on everything you say,
As if it's something I've never heard,

I tell myself I'll stop falling,
For you when you're around,
But when I'm by your side,
I can remember every sound,

I remember your innocent laughter,
Your unforgettable smile,
I grasp every move you make,
Keeping our distance within a mile,

I know I should say no,
To all your seductive ways,
But when we're together,
My past turns to a complete haze,

You gently touch my arm,
In a simple friendly gesture,
I know you don't have the same intentions,
You don't ever think of *her*

*Her* meaning me,
*Him* meaning you,
I have visions of us together,
You don't even have a clue,

Maybe on a good day,
I'll be able to pass you by,
Without looking back,
And wondering why,

I know you would break my heart,
But it is worth the risk,
You can't gain anything without taking chances,
But this chance I'll have to miss,

If you ever hurt me,
I know it would be the end,
I wouldn't want to be with another guy,
For they'll never be another *him*
