I look into your eyes
My heart starts to race
My breathing rapidly increases
My body’s in a state
Yet …
I’m in heaven!

What is happening to me?
It feels as if I'm losing my mind
Do I take this chance at love?
Or do I run and hide?

You’re in my thoughts day and night
I’m fighting these feelings with every ounce inside
Knowing very well that I have plenty to hide

But you see right through
No wall too thick or too tall
I feel vulnerable
I feel bare

How I long for your touch
For the safe haven you provide
When you wrap your arms around me

I am falling for you
Falling hard and fast
It feels as though I’m looking at this
From one dizzy height
A mixture of excitement & fear
Whenever you are near

Here I am, take my hand
For I am fragile & scared
I’m putting all my trust in you
For I have fallen …
I have fallen for you!
And
all of the sudden I felt
really tired
Like the world had drained me
for everything that
I had.

Once there was a dreamer,
all he wanted was to run,
but he cannot even walk.
He can't break free of his own chains,
the one given to him since birth.
His mother was never proud of him,
he hid in the shadows of his curtains.
His father never really said anything,
he was always busy with something.
They love him, yes,
but that was not enough.
He wants to claim his own happiness
And so in dreams he says

I want to run,
it would be my dull life's cure.
I want to taste the sun,
I have never felt pure
I am tattered,
tainted with impairment.
A ***** disable,
I want to do things
my feet cannot bear.

I need my freedom,
I need my remedy.

And so in a dream,
he felt so ready,
he didn't hear the gun start,
nor the beating of his heart
This is clarity;
his feet floated,
he was immense,
And so in reality,
when he awoke, he said
It was intense.

All I sensed was the radiating sun,
I didn't do anything but run.
These children have wings, too.
You've shed tears on my shoulder,
you've made me laugh and smile,
You've picked me up from every single low,
If ever I'm in trouble, it's your number I dial,
It makes my feelings battle, to and fro,
We treat each other soundly, like family some would say,
For you, I'd simply take that fatal shot,
I'd never ask the question, just move right in the way,
Yet emotions, sure of them I'm simply not,
I always sat and wondered: what if we could be more?
What if I'd taken one more giant leap?
In honesty, confusion, I think it closed the door,
And now it's left me but a ****** heap,
I see you as a sister, and that's how it should be,
I don't want our relationship to end,
For we were never lovers, and now it's dawned to me,


**You're always better to me as a friend.
I think it can be fun to be single and date-like when you don't want a relationship. Or when you've just gotten out of a relationship, and, after get over the initial shock, your thinking, Hey, it's kind of cool being single.  Being single is happy. We all deserve to be happy.
Some people doesn't
           know the true
                                    meaning of the word

                                                                                                      WORTH.
Eyes, fashioned from the stars.
Your hair dances to the wind.
Your skin,smooth as porcelain.
Your whispers create music.
Your smile brings good memories.

I love you.
But I could never tell you.

That's not what friends do.
