I Hope There's Never Anything Between Us.

by Not Bulletproof   Aug 29, 2006


"Why can't I feel anything for anyone other than you?"

The dreams I've had bring us closer together,
in an "in my opinion" kind of way.
Oh darling, I know you'll see these thoughts, never,
but I'd like to think that you will anyway;
I'd like to think you feel the same,
because you bring life to my name.

I can't complain; can't be angry,
not when I think about you.
This may sound crazy,
but you mean a lot to me...
I know you're thinking "that's not true",
but what other way is there to describe this,
this confusion, this fear...this happiness.

I've felt this way before.
I may have been wrong,
but I don't know anymore.
It's been so long,
since I experienced the butterflies,
and the constant frustration inside.

One minute, I want to scream with everything I have for you,
and the next, I want to cry and finally get my heart over you.

I feel like a pile of clothes on the floor,
and I don't know what to do with myself.
I'll let you walk over me until you pick me up;
put me on the shelf,
or sell me at a store.
Hey, if I'm lucky, maybe you'll wear me, instead.

I've never been one to tell the truth,
so this is no exception:
You're a great friend only,
and I hope that's all we'll ever be.
I hope there's never anything between you and me.

Never.
