You

by Lucas Rochester   Jun 27, 2006


How do I tell you how I really feel?
Will you believe me if I tell you its real;
or would you walk away,
without realizing how much you mean to me.
When I look at the stars, way up there in the sky
they remind me of the sparkle I see in your eyes.
When I look out across the ocean, I see peace;
the same peace that I see in you.
When I look down from the top of the tallest mountain,
I can see everything.
There is no place for my feelings to hide.
I feel like a king, looking down at this kingdom.
But Im missing you, my queen, at my side.
When I look at the sun, I see your smile.
The similarities are not too distant.
When I look at the sun, I feel its warmth;
the same warmth that I see in your heart.
You have this radiance that brightens my every day.
I feel so calm, so tranquil when you walk by,
and even better when your eyes meet mine.
Every day I hope and I pray
that you might turn to me and smile.
Maybe even say hi.
Because when I see the smile on your face,
you make me grow wings that fly me high into the morning sky.
These feelings Im overflowing with are so hard to explain.
They dont leave. Here they are, deeply immovable in my heart
Being able to see your grace and beauty,
is the only thing that keeps me from going insane.
Ive kept these feeling bottled up for so long,
but soon enough the bottle was no longer big enough
to contain all of my true emotions, emotions so overpowering;
More meaning than the worlds most admired love songs.
I know that we just recently met,
But I cant help the way you have made me feel;
the way you draw me in.
I have a crush on you to say the least.
Maybe crush is too weak of a word, but for now, it will have to do.
I dont know why I feel this way,
but I dont regret it one bit.
I want to be a part of your life,
and be someone special to you.
I could try to not feel this way
but I know that these feelings would not go away.
So many times I have wanted to tell you how I feel
but it all sticks in my throat, it all sounds too cute.
Will you accept it, or should I stay mute.
Is it better than offering cliches that you have heard before?
I dont know, but I feel as though you should know.
Sometimes the fear of rejection brings confusion,
the confusion brings silence. But my heart prays that you will hear my silence
and understand.
