Your eyes are dark pools, scanning my soul.
Can so easily be lost in their depth if I wasn't alert.
Under your gaze I tremble to give away feelings that you might not wish to return.
I run before I'm pinned to the wall behind me
You gaze dares me to stay
Hey you scare me
Never sure how you feel,
I run for fear of being caught wanting
Your standards are high,
mine are higher
Scared still of not making the grade
yet fear more that you don't
I know you not
Yet love you I do
It's the liking part that bothers me
Do you constantly test me
Who are you when you're not acting
would I like you if I knew you?
Let me know you, we can only but try.
Life is too short to play these silly games.
Too long to wait forever
Cut the crap and let me in
I treasure you so let me learn to give you what you need.
