Can'T Help It
"Walls up, I’m not letting anyone in
Tongue bitten, and keeping it from the whole earth
Not sure when this started to form within
Cannot tell how time will change this love’s worth
I hate that you can do anything, love.
And I’ll still find you as a shiny pearl.
Your personality beyond and above,
Your fire is making me want to twirl
When it’s midnight, I’ll be crying for you
Weeping at the thought of love not returned
It’s so hard to admit, but I love you
If I told you, I would only get burned
Feeling this way is risky to admit
But, sadly, my heart honestly can’t help it."
