Somewhere in There

I felt it strong

The feelings I felt

For you


It isn't so

Desperate now

Since I have you 


They grow high

And sometimes they shrink

If I'm being honest


I expect they'll

Grow more

I'm so excited for that


But now and then

When I think of you

I get scared


You breathe

You eat

You sleep, barely


What do you

Think of

When you can't sleep?


Is that why

You distract yourself

With your screens?


You say, 

This is 

How I live


I wasn't aware

That burying yourself

Counted as living


And sometimes

I grow afraid

For your head


What is

Going on 

In there


You have

No idea

How worried I get


I'm bursting 

With dreams

And feel magic


I just wanted 

To share it

With you, especially


I was afraid

Of staying

Because of this


Thought you

Would never be

Interested in living


Because

After a while

You never changed
