I wish I could see you again. Hear your laugh, See your smile. Feel your arms around me, Look at your face and feel you smiling at me. See you smile at me, Only me. Hold your hand, Even though I’m too shy. I’m laughing at myself now, This wasn’t meant to sound so romantic. It was meant to be simple, But I started writing and the pen took over. I hope telling you these things, Doesn’t make you want to go away. I like being around you, I hope telling you all this doesn’t scare you off. I wish I could tell you everything, Let it all go and be myself. Sometimes I want to, More than anything. But I don’t know if I can. Seventeen years is a long time to hide, A demon behind the innocent smile of an angel. To just let go and open up. Release the side of you, Buried so deep. I thought it was impossible, Until I met you. You brought out a side of me, I thought died long ago. Breathing life into the real me. This demonic little girl, Forced to hide behind an innocent smile. A shadow, Bent on self-destructing. But with you, It’s different. I don’t know why or how, But it is. So I can’t wait to see you again, To see what you think of me. To see if you run, to see if you stay When it’s all said and done.
