I see you standing there,

Happy and enjoying life without a care.

After a long week,

It appears as though you have found sweet relief.

My outlook on life has been bleak,

And thoughts of hope are marred by disbelief.

After the few minutes I actually get to talk to you,

I am left with trying to subdue

My thoughts of failure and shame.

I try not to complain,

I try not to go insane.

I try so hard not be a pain.

I know I am not anywhere near the main

Importance in your life so I maintain

My restrain

To venture into your school domain.

My love will never wane

And I would follow you to Spain

If I had to.

You just look so at peace with your friends

And it seems as though they provide something I can never give.

No matter how hard I spend,

I always seem to relive,

Moments of pain and sadness.

In all this madness,

You saw past all the badness,

And gave me a second chance.

I can’t dance,

And I am new to romance.

I wait by the phone every morning

Hoping you will call.

I love to hear your voice say good morning,

And when you apologize for nothing at all.

Waiting is my new occupation

And I hope my day of liberation

Comes soon.

So for now I will just have to sit and look at the moon,

And tell you I love you and hope to see you soon.
