HOW DO I TELL YOU HOW I FEEL
How do i tell you i love you when,
When i am not sure that is what you feel for me?
How do i let you walk away but
But still have you?
See
My love for you is the same
The same as the first time i laid my eyes on you
I'm scared
I'm scared because i'm afraid i am
I am all by myself
How do i tell you i sank to obsession
Yes, obsession in how you talk.
I want to walk away but how do i do that?
Teach me how to hate you like you
You taught me how to be infatuated with you
See
I dreamt of your sensation i
I want to hug and kiss you like we are
Running out of time
How do i tell you i love and want you more
And not in the casaul way we say it
How do i convince you to sail with me
In this infatuation or die with me in
This obsession
I really want you, that's no lie
See
I kept running, i held my breath long enough
I ran out of glucose, i grew weary
I was all salty with no drop of water
To hydrate me,
All this,
Hoping to see light at the end of the tunnel
How do l know my unfathomable love you
Does not disgust you?
How do i tell you i have so many questions
For you, But, but i cannot ask
I can't. You glance gives me goosebumps and
The taste of your saliva in my mouth, drains my mind.
How do i say with calmness that
This unpalatable love derails me
From chasing my dreams
See,
The first time i saw you,
I thought i loved your nose,
That enormous nose, then i thought it was your eyes,
But i kept staring at your mouth as you talked
How do l know i mean anything to you
How i hope someday you can look at me
Like i do at you
I hope it doesn't take eternity
If it does, don't forget to buy me roses and violates and put them on my grave,
I hope you will not forget to visit it
See,
i'm afraid. I'm crawling to my grave
But you cannot see
But why
Why is it hard for you
For you, to distinguish my feign smile
From, from my genuine smile.
