Coward
Eyes that shine when all is dark
They light the fire inside my heart
An open flame that burns so bright
Blue-Green hue inside pure white
You catch my glance from across the room
You smell like a flower ripe in bloom
You walk by and make my heart pound
I start to talk, out comes not sound
I kick myself for being shy
I could not even spit out "hi"
I try to think of the right thing to say
I know it will happen but not today
I missed my chance but there is tomorrow
But tonight I'll have to deal with sorrow
The pain you feel right before you die
Feels a lot better after you cry
You don't know what you do to me
I close my eyes, you're all I see
Things are not always as they seem
But when I wake up it is no dream
