Snow in summertime

by kate   Oct 19, 2005


I love you
I love you
I love you
you give me a rush
you make my heart fly
you're my only hope
I want you
I need you
I'm too scared to be me
you make me nervous
I can't speak
I sit enthralled by your words
mesmerized by the sparkle in your eyes
the depth of your voice
the way you say what you mean
I love you
I want to shout out loud
but i don't say a word
because something holds me back

I don't know what it is
but somethings just not right
but I shake the feeling off
it's perfect -
you're perfect
but the feeling doesn't go
it lies,
buried not quite deep enough

time passes
summer comes
people notice the way i look at you
and one day i say it
I love you
and the silence is deafening
we ignore what i said
I can't get my heart out of my head
I can't think straight
that feeling comes back

I look across at you
you smile
I see it
but i don't want to notice
you don't look at me like that
you don't see me as the only person in the room
and that feeling comes around
and i realize
you don't feel the same way
you don't love me

time stops
I think I've always known
but i don't want to open my eyes
but deep down i know;
that having your love,
would be like snow in summertime
