Its almost like when we first met, stumbling over                                      all the awkward in between
feelings, anxious-nervous,
       snipping my heart
                                           seam
                                        by
                                                    seam.



                       It feels like we're strangers,
baby why do I get so scared?
when I'm tired and stressed and undone
        it feels that my heart is the one thing
                                              I can't seem to bear.



Numbness creeps in like morphine
                                        through my veins
                      defensive and upset
I only have myself to blame.



            I want to feel, I want to express myself
                                 like I am now
                    but in moments of emotion
        I can't seem to find the right words to say


                      what I can rhyme



                 I have a million and one things racing
      through my mind
                     I've tried shine as bright as you

        but I simply burn out over time



I'm trying my best, to be my best for you
   it just never feels enough
         you're a eight cylinder lamborgini
             and I'm drawing smiley faces in the dust.


I can't deal with,

                 the fact that you are so much more

      
      than I could ever hope to be.



                                                  It's scary,


    there are 6.9 billion other people out there


who shine so much brighter

                                                      t­han me.
