Secrets of an Introvert

Falling

I barely know you
Yet that doesn't stop me
From falling every time I see your face
And each time I hear your voice
In my mind, you take up so much space
Tell me how to get over you
Because as hard as I try
It just keeps getting worse
I fall deeper and deeper
Wondering, will it ever stop?
So, here I sit writing this verse
Hoping it will help
Get you out of my head
But it only makes me think of you more
And there you stay, even when I lay in my bed
I'll admit it, I wish you were there
Right beside me
Just for someone to hold
And tell me it'll be alright
But it's just a dream
That only keeps me up at night
It's not fair; not right
The way you have taken over my life
I connect things to you
That no one else can
I remember every little thing you've ever said
And then I devise a plan
To cut you out of my life
Erase everything that reminds me of you
I focus on my work; family and friends
But it's not enough of a distraction
I find my way back to you somehow
It's must be some kind of magnetic attraction
Except I know it's one-sided
You'd never feel the same
Yet, you're my light in the dark
The one I always want to turn to
Maybe between us, there is a spark
Just yet to be discovered
But we're in two different worlds
We're a million leagues apart
And still I don't think you comprehend
Just how much you have stolen my heart
It's crazy to me that I could ever feel this way
About someone I've never even met
But I need to be honest
Before I lose my friggin' mind
You're the one for me, I know it
Yet you seem to still be so blind
To the fact that I am even here
And I don't think you'll ever know
That the honest truth is
No one could ever love you
Exactly the way I do
