When your feet drags, where it used to sprint
When your eyes smile, where it used to squint
When your hand trembles, where it wanted to grab
And you forget to breathe, but rather gasp
You look away, and your eyes wander
Not 'cos you want your mind to ponder
For, you just dont want your eyes to tell
What your heart is afraid to say
Then comes the day you learn from a moth
That “the flame has always been you”
Then you know, those awkward silences that passed
both
When you run out of things to talk; been 'cause
neither could say 'I love You'
A secret desire to hear it from him and wish
He might have
whispered
under his breath
“Funny, how lil we remembered of each other back
then”
And what would it take now to
forget.
And so is this how it really feels?
To fall that hard, with nowhere to land
To fall that hard, with nowhere to land
That quiet shudder, when you watch him stand
'Unable to stay …....and unwilling to leave.....'
Sweet, sweet pain of not knowing what exactly you mean to him but knowing that you're not just a friend.
