Distance Between Us

Walking through that door just like any other day,
It's your face that I tend to search for without delay,
Seeing you chatting with other chicks,
Do you know how fast my heart beats?

You smile at me and say hey,
I smile back and gesture you away,
Not because I don't enjoy your company,
But because I won't be able to control myself when you are near me.

I watch you walk flawlessly away with a painful chest,
Did you even noticed I wore my best dress?
Never could I comprehend the feelings I have for you.
So painful and yet so beautiful.

This innocent love I would never dreamed to have,
Is slowly invading my head with no hope of saving left,
With a sigh I walk over to my usual seat,
Fully aware of what I have sowed that I will reap.

And as my gaze fall upon you once again,
I know I have only myself to blame,
Turning my head and closing my eyes,
I guess I just have to endure this until we say our goodbyes.

I am a coward for leaving my feelings like this,
Afraid of the truth and unwilling to take the risk,
Oh how I loathe this dreadful curse,
This cold and empty distance between us.
