1...2...3.... breathe
That's what going threw my head as I leave
I'm almost there
I keep trying not to stare
Thoughts of you running threw my head
They're starting to turn my face red
My heart thuds as the miles become fewer
And I can't help but think "if only I wasn't such a loser"
I always mess up when I've got you
I don't know how I do what I do
I get so close and let my walls drop so low
I stare into your eyes and hug you not wanting to let go
But I had to
So I let my fingers slide from yours saying "I love you..."
No reply
No goodbye
So I'll let my head droop low
And this angel will fly solo
But I have another chance...tonight
Hopefully this time I'll get it right...
I'm getting closer to those doors
And maybe closer to once again being yours
Till I'm there I'll keep my headphone in an my music up loud
And I'll whisper the lyrics to that song so quiet yet proud
My mother nudges me
"Your here now...see?"
I nod slowly leaving the car
Hoping you aren't so far
I let out a sigh
And walk to the wall as others pass with their skirts hiked high
I'm waiting...waiting for you
Hoping you'll come too
Friends, foes, and god knows pass me by
They act like I'm invisible to the naked eye
Its starting to get dark and your still not near
Your not coming I start to fear
Hours seemed to have passed
So I walk inside as asked
Still no one is here
"I've been stood up" I think with a tear
