My small room
And my small world
And stop thinking

Is all mine
But you are not
And I have to start remembering that
Every time I get too close
And daydream
About the way your soft eyelashes
Trace the edges of your beautiful eyes
As you stare into mine
When it's too dark outside
And all I want to be
Is near you
All you are
Is a boy that I don't know
And all you are
Is a boy
That I can never have.
