My mind is wrapped around
Getting to know you
But it's so hard
To climb your brick wall
Tip toeing
Not wanting to break anything
Hints tossed like a salad
But it's like juggling hot potatoes
I don't wanna ask the wrong questions
I don't wanna dig too deep
Too fast
I want you to trust me
But my mind is wrapped around
Getting to know you
Slowly waiting for the right timing
Impatient words linger and claw at my lips
Choking me but I hold them
Back for you
To freely express yourself willingly
My mind is wrapped around
Getting to know you
But I'm scared to always
Be the one
To text you first
So then days go by
With no words exchanged
And my mind swells with
Dead emotions
"I guess I'm not important"
"If she hasn't by now then she never will"
My mind is wrapped around
Getting to know you
But it's so hard
Why is it so hard
Should I keep trying
Or am I just an annoying ****
What's your mind wrapped around
What're you stuck on
I wish these things
Were the things
That we talked about
My mind is wrapped around
Getting to know you
And I'm just stuck
On what to do
It's almost like
I don't cross your mind at all
It's like you can't find the time
While I'm pushing
Everything
Out of my way
To make all the time
But it goes to waste
Through the cracks
Of your fingers
And it doesn't even matter to you
