Forever
There you are sitting here and I don't know about you but I want to get to know you. The
way you smile, the way you make me laugh. Your all I want and I just want you to know. I
used to be that same shy girl who would look away when you turn towards me but don't you
know we don't have forever and now that I've figured that out I won't be nervous anymore.
I want you here with me and there isn't any room for playing games because your perfect
in my eyes your my soul mate. The way you look at me, Oh I can't believe I let you go.
But not the second time around. I will look you dead in the eye, I won't just write in my
diary about what I want to do. Nothing will happen if you just sit around, I've learn
this now as I watch you walk out of my life. If I ever did see you again and I mean this
when I say I would walk right up to you and flirt and even though it's not in my nature I
want you to know we don't have forever. So what if you reject me, I just have to know
that I made an attempt. I won't let love just walk out on me, I am different can't you
see. Your everything that I have dreamed and now that your back I just can't let you
leave. Don't you know what it was like watching you when I was younger. I was nervous
just being around you gave me shivers. Maturity is great because now I can look you
straight in the eyes and tell you what I have been thinking since I first saw you. We
don't have forever so if you want me please don't doodle. As I calmly walked up to you
and smiled the only thought in my mind was " to be continued".
