Crossroads (High school love)

Sunny skies
Laden with blue
See my heart
Broken in 2

I see your eyes
And feel your stare
But I know that your mind
Is paused in midair

You know not your heart
It tears you in two
You cannot admit
The feelings in you.

I know I am right
The time will come
Will it be too late
Will my heart be numb?

i love you - you know
It burns me inside
A yearning place
That i must hide

It will have to end
You'll see all your lies
Will you finally see me?
Will you open your eyes?

I see your heart
It cannot be covered
It is up to you ....
Love must be discovered.

Until then i sit
i wait and i cry
And send earnest prayers
Up into the sky.

You cannot admit
Your heart is mine
It ruins your plan
Your life of "straight line".

The world also knows
It sees through your mask
We witness your effort -
Denial's a task.

You have the power
To open your heart
To see who I am
Or calmly depart ....

For now close your eyes
Hold back the truth
Deny to yourself
Preserve all your youth.

But one day - you'll know
I'll stand before you
You'll feel it hit
Like a bolt from the blue

So laugh while you can
Pretend you don't see
But at night - when you sleep -
You'll dream about me.
