* the following are all mine and all joined*

I hope it's not too naive
To believe you actually care for me
Sometimes I catch myself
Sinking deeper
And I remind myself
It can't be possible
That an amazing human like you
Actually sees me
*
Oh god
You see me
You like me
Why is it so hard,
To believe it?
To let myself relax?
Instead I'm watching you,
Waiting for the moment,
When you wake up,
And realise I'm not good enough for you.

*
I knew from the start,
From the moment that our hearts beat a little faster,
That I would be the one to screw this up,
And now I have,
And I don't know how to fix it.
The space is growing with each second,
And I don't know how to close it.
Time is ticking,
How do I stop it?

*

I can hear the clock ticking,
And my heart beats faster.
Is it too late,
To ask you to stay?

*

It's healing over now, the memory of you.
Your voice, your smile, your eyes.
The way your touch sent shivers down my spine.
