Burning Embers
If things get weird
Or worse then I feared
At myself I will be furious
And it's something I don't think you will take serious
But I just don't know what you think
So I sit and stare without a blink
I am not ashamed when you see me glaring
Because then I know back at me you are staring
I wish I could read your mind
Then the answer I could find
But to me you are quite a mystery
How will this look in our history?
I want you to talk to me more
Or maybe I'll just walk out the door
Your voice on the phone so pure
It is all of my illnesses cure
I wish I knew just what you see
Your view of you, and of me
I hope you talk to me about it one day
But for now in your life I will stay
I'll be that girl who's always there
Who about, you might just care
So while you flirt with other girls remember
For you my heart is burning like embers
