I Can'T Follow My Heart

I'm Aching
Their is no faking 
the fake that I want you
  I can't erase you from my mind
 No matter how many times I try
   Your perfect
   My eyes have never seen
    anything so breath taking
   my heart has never felt this swollen
     I'm just fine being friends with you
      as long as I can be around you 
     But I can't tame this fire burning within
             It's killing me that I can't follow my heart
        It's telling me your all I need
                 But I must proceed
                Without you next to me 
                it's killing me everyday
                       I shake it off constantly
                        Ignoring this feeling isn't easy
