Said & Unsaid

I'm sorry
But your eyes
I looked in
And now I'm under your spell
I didn't mean to come off so strong
But I just couldn't resist
Else my heart would have burst with longing

Did I speak too soon?
Or cross the line?
Did my advances scare you away?
But I've had the chance to talk to you
And I'm certain that I could talk with you day and night
That our lives would be twice full with each other's company

Did I lose my chance?
In my haste?
In fear?
In this insecurity
That you wouldn't be there when I turn?
But knowing what you truly want
You can't wait for life to start
You can't wait another second
And these hours I have to bare

In silence I wait
Carrying a mantra of patience
Trying to distract myself and stay away
But in the end I always find myself here
Wherever I go, I come back here
Whispering words
Staring afar
Thinking about our conversations
Picturing your face
Those piercing eyes
The warmth in your smile
I am caught in the clout that you cast

Am I saying too much again?
Why can't this wait?
Cause this silence is driving me insane
And there is nothing more I'd want in my life right now
Than to find you in it
Sharing stories and dreams and ramblings 'bout the world
Discovering the many mysteries and marvels hidden abound
Drunk with life's passion
Finding myself in your eyes
And knowing that it is here, and only here, that I want to be

I'm sorry
Did I say that out loud?
Was it too much again?
Oh, these words!
If they could only find a way
Without raised eyebrows
Or shocked stares
Without scaring you away

So let these words be written
That I may tell you someday
And when that someday comes
When you'd be reading these lines
When there would be no risk of losing you with this honesty
I know that I'd be the most blessed man
Cause I would finally be with you
And you are all the dreams I could ever have
And all my dreams would have finally come true
