Tounge-tied.
I reach for your attention.
For your eyes to take a second & notice me.
To steal your breathe for a moment.
But when i manage to do so.
I freeze up.
My body feels numb.
My teeth are hurting.
My eyes are wandering.
I'm tounge-tied.
If i manage to open my mouth.
To let out a single sentence.
You'd be gone by that.
Away.
Far enough to be deaf for my screams.
"i love you".
