I don't know what to think
I don't know how to act
Because every time you're around
I stop and think back


Every move and every word
Makes me rethink your intentions
But I seem to hold back
Because of my confused conditions


Making me feel special
Is your best trick of all
It's like you have a power over me
That keeps making me fall


Fall for your charm
And all you put on the table
But according to another
You just seem to be unstable


I've heard it all
I don't want to know
If you're just a fake
I don't want a show


It pains me to know
That I'm just like the rest
Im not on a different level
Still not the best


You send mixed signals
I can't be the only one
It's like I'm on a mailing list
Is this your idea of fun?


Making girls feel special
Making them want you
When in reality kid
There have only be a few


The best if the best
The cream of the crop
In your eyes they were perfect
But they made my heart drop


Vulnerable is not word you use a lot
Mainly because of your pride
But I wish you could just see it
Sit back and enjoy the ride


I know deep down inside
Way in the nooks of your heart
There is a beautiful man
Just waiting for his start


Maybe you'll see one day
All we could have been
And if I was being honest
I would wait till then


But I've waited long enough
I've grown tired from fear
I'm ready to put it out there
Even if I shed a tear


You are one of a kind
A man in the making
Here's to you and your life
Here's my heart for the taking.

Here in a conversation
Her face in your mind
Her name on your lips
But there is nothing to find

She hides a secret
Only that we know
She wont say a word
Wont let it show

You asked me once
You asked me twice
No more gambling for me
I'll roll the dice

I liked you can't you see?
I still do
She took that away from me
She took away you

I asked for a favor
A simple act of kindness
For her to watch out for you
Not take you in blindness

She let me believe everything
All the lies she told too
I'm still hurting from it
Are you?

Until this very moment
On this very day
I was scared to tell you
Scared you would walk away

But I have no more fear
I know what I must do
Say how I feel
And waht my heart feels is true

I still like you
I'm not even sure why
But when I think about it
It makes me want ot cry

Obviously I care about you
Your happiness and all
i'm going to try and forget
Everything that made me fall

The way we act when we're alone
Your body close to mine
And how you looked at me
The way your eyes shinned

I want it to be done
I want you out of my head
I second guess eveything you do
If only you caould have said

Said what you wanted
And what you wanted from me
That last night on the lake front
Where it went from us to we

I wont forget you
Not in a million years
but I'm done crying over you
You don't deserve my tears

Funny thing is
that you don't even know
How I'm writing this poem for you
And how it made me grow

I understand the reasons
I don't think you do
Because one day you will find her
The girl that completes you

Fall in love with her
Give her everything you can
Because one day she will be gone
You'll be left a lonely man

One day you'll see what I mean
My wish will come true
That we could have each other
I could've been with you

Don't know when it will happen
Or how long it will be
Maybe the universe will do it right
And make us a we

Goodnight and good day
I wish always for you
To hope you find someone to love
As much as I loved you.
