Funny isn't it, when you like something but you can’t accept it.
Accept the fact that you really, really like it.
Is it possible at all, to like something, rather someone and hide it
deep down in your heart so that no one can see what’s going on?
Is it possible to pretend like nothing has ever happened?
To be all normal with that storm inside your head?
Can’t let it go now, can you? Neither can you hold on to it tight.
The others say that it’s not good for you, but what do they know,
I've already made some space in my heart for that special thing,
or should I say for that special one. I still am not sure.
You see that, I’m trying to put up an act that will make you think,
I’m perfectly alright; ask me if I’m okay, and I’d simply say,
“Never been better!”, pretend as if nothing has ever happened.
And how would you know if I've never told you anything,
ask me why and I’d tell you the truth that I’m scared.
Scared whether that little part of my heart would crash into pieces
and will never be able to heal from all that pain.
So, the only way that seems the best for me and for everyone around me
is, to hide all those feelings and smile like a good girl,
as for that storm, I’m sure it will subside, sooner or later.
Dearest special one, you are better off in one tiny cozy
place in my heart, be safe, don’t meddle with anything.
Love,
Someone who’s pretending that they don’t like you.
