As I gaze into the night sky,
My dreams allow me to fly.
I do not fly to what other people might consider charms.
I only fly into your strong, protective arms.

As a reality my dream begins to seem,
My racing thoughts become meek
Of fantasies between you and me,
And I know, now, that you have set me free.

My body grows numb,
As a nightmare, my dream begins to become.
Frozen eyes and pitiful sighs
Fill my world as they hear my cries.

Everyone knows how I feel,
And they know your heart I cannot steal.
As I pretend it’s okay to only be friends,
I know it is you on which my heart depends.

Since my feelings I am able to hide,
You cannot see the true pain inside.
And even though you know of the crush,
Of these feelings, my lips I will continue to shush.
