Exposed

My emotions are all over the place Still even now, I look around and all I see is your face You is who I long to embrace My fears are raw and won't subside Being scared of not seeing you just one more time Well that's all I ever feel inside Feelings keep getting in the way Never leaving me alone day after lonely day I've told you I'm in love with you Yet there's still so much to say But I knew all this time that all this Might be the price I'd have to pay It's the passing of yet another year Of not having you to hold ever so dear And letting everyone into my broken heart peer Loved ones who I'm glad to have here They try their best to help me along However it's me that feels like still I don't belong Right now death would be so easy as opposed to this The sound of no longer going through all this pain seems like such bliss For me it's the living that takes so damn long Facing the day and having it feel so wrong Then there's the night with another damn love song So much time I've wasted holding on to someone with whom I knew clearly wasn't meant to be When i finally realized you belong with me I was never completely in love with him That's what I get for dating on a whim It's my heart that I now wear on my sleeve Bleeding none the less and longing to be free These emotions, fears, and feelings of my life I would've never choose Suppose that's why I'm now left feeling completely exposed
