Without You

Look how long it's been,
the first time i saw you
either third or fourth grade
in elementary school.

but now that we're teens,
you're still stuck in my heart
it's you i want to know better
your world i want to be a part

when your eyes meet mines
i wonder if you know
can you see through my heart
or the signs that i show?

i want to confess to you
and get it over with
know if you'll ever return my feelings
or will i just get rejected?

I'm at a fork way-
confused on the spot
my mind is so scrambled
I'm entangled in a knot

i just want to know you better
is that too much to ask?
you seem so cool on the outside
but what's beneath your mask?

just being in the same room as with you
will make my heart pick up speed
my mind goes blank from nervousness
and i find it harder to breathe.

I've tried so hard to be with you
i don't know if I'm doing this right
but all odds are against me
and I'm forced to say goodbye.
I'm sorry.
