Close my eyes
I go to sleep,
Dream of night
Awake will keep
Hopes I can't forget about
Cuz,God, I think I'm blacking out.

Streetlights stare,
I walk around,
Looking like a mirrorball.
I wait to see a sign from you
Yet, I know I can't go through
Every city in the world
Just to keep on seeing you.

Tears are falling,
The depths are crying,
Leaving sounds almost like dying.

I turn around
Surprised to see
Your colored eyes
That made me freeze.

Questions popped out
In my head:
Do I like him?
Do I care?
Do I want to live in despair?
Is this true?
Are you still here?
Just think of all the things we could hear.
Me and you,
Locked together.
Me and you,
Stuck forever.

Hours passed,
It felt like days.
Rivers of words went many ways.
I got to know you,
You got to know me,
Yet my only question
Was left unnoticed.

You get up as you try to leave,
But I place my hand above your knee.
I try to stop you,
Yet you scream,
"Get the hell up from your dream!"
Just a situationship a friend of mine had.

I wish I knew what to say to you,
I wish I knew what to do.
I know it's foolish, I really do,
But I can't help, I keep crawling back to you.

The way you tried,
The way I ignored it.
The way you cared,
Annoyed, I avoided
Talking to you,
But now I regret that too.

I can't help but think about you.
Now my wishes would never come true,
For I gave the wrong impression to you.

And I tried to stop,
But my heart wouldn't let me through
The glass walls that keep me away from you.

My emotions
Always look at me,
Gossiping the toxic traits I try so hard to leave.

They come and go,
But I'm always hostage in the same cage,
Where jealousy keeps killing me and my days.

So please forgive me and my ways
Of telling you to talk to me while I'm lost in my own haze.
It means nothing if I don't listen, too,
But I can't find my words to come and talk to you.

I've done you wrong, and I know it's true
I just wish I could come back to you.
But instead, I keep on drowning,
Sinking in a bleeding wound,
Whispering to myself how much I love you...
So close, yet so far
I could see your leaves,
Swinging from afar

So close, yet so far
I can't take you out of my mind.
For I am just a simple tree,
Knowing you'll never look at me.

I could see your leaves,
But I could never touch them,
For the million hands I have
Our branches would forever remain apart.

Swinging from afar
Your sprightly crown moving in slow-motion;
You make me full of emotions,
For you are my one and only star

Swinging from afar,
I could see your leaves,
So close, yet so far.
