My eyes unconsciously follow
Without reason or even a thought
Suddenly my throat's dry and it's hard to swallow
I'm frozen, glazing afar from my spot
Your laughing with your friends is musical
That longing I have to just hear every day
Like the sound blocks out anything rational
There's no escape from this feeling or running away
I've tried to be confident but the anticipation
Attempted to speak yet no words could form
Afraid? Scared? Worried of rejection?
A tornado of mixed emotion; an endless storm
Everyone says love is a beautiful thing
No one spoke of the pain it would be causing
