There's no easy way to say this

It's just, I long for your sweet kiss

I wish I could at last confess

But I'd turn us into a terrible mess

If only there was some other way

But I still don't know just what I'd say

I can never be myself around you

I can tell there's no way you feel it too

Eternal games of hide and seek

I play as I try and fail to act meek

Because whenever you're around

I'm alert, not safe and sound

Yet I can't be without your touch

Don't leave me please, it's not that much

It's impossible to shake this feeling

Of complete and utter unstoppable bleeding

For every smile, hope and happy dream

Has no correlation at all to me

And to see you with your only other

Makes me curl up and go take cover

But never will you ever see

Simply how much you mean to me

Each word, joke, and laughing roar

Leaves me empty, craving more

Concealing, unnerving secret keeping

False truths and hopes and disbelieving

I made a promise to never show

But now I've become my only foe
