Alone

It's harder than you think it would be
Your beauty entices and invigorates me
It's not easy watching you strolling through my dream
Without knowing the pain I can't stop feeling

There certainly is no reason for me to feel this way
I can only imagine to be loved again someday
The future is coming up fast and this is true
Why must I spend another minute without you?

My options are limited and I don't have much space
Why would someone want to look at my face?
Sitting in a chair alone in this small room
The walls are closing in and I must get out soon.

My wants, my fears and my insecurities
Continually venting lest I explode in a fury
I feel the passion burning inside my chest
I need to feel reciprocation and will accept nothing less.

I understand the reasons I can't have you
Although things will change and I'll prove
I'm worth my weight in gold
Until my soul is sold.
