trying hard to shake it off
avoiding you as possible
pretending not to notice
your eyes watching me

thought I would not fall
but I am sliding to fast
I can't focus with
your presence around me

I think of millions ways
to approach you
to whisper in your ears
that I felt the same

but I can't so here I am
in the shadows
thinking of you and watching you
watching me and pretending
I don't care
