This may be just another love poem
Or maybe it's not
Just another piece of paper
To pour out my soul
But I feel as if I've known you
My whole life
Like the dream I dreamed
But it was sadly
Just another wish
My aching heart made

I want you to sing to me
I want you to respond
I want to meet you
And talk to you

I had the chance
That day by the stage door
But crushing nervousness
And pure awe
Kept me in its grasp

Your torture to me
Is a one-way mirror
I can see you
You will never see me

I wish there was a song
To express my feelings
But emotions as pure and confusing
As mine
Cannot be expressed in words
Or song
Your song

My life has been turned upside down
You are the only reason
Yet, you are so far away
So close within my grasp
But still not close enough
So close
Yet, so far

I need to kiss your lips
Graze my hands
On the soft skin of your cheeks
I need to know you
Flaws, and strengths
Your personality
I need you to know me
Weird quirks and talents
My personality

What tortures me is this:
I have a chance with you
But not a good one
I'm torn between two choices
Completely surrendering
Or clinging to hope
Though now
I don't know if I could do either
