Say Any Something
I don't know but want to,
Afraid to yet not completely
Confused yet extremely intrigued
I think of her and want to say
It's the truth about it all
That amazes me
I see the beauty beyond her surface
Constantly
Beyond her red hair
And grand ear rings
She's herself
I want to show her "me"
I find myself holding my breath
Wanting to say something
Anything
It's admittance to being vulnerable
Congratulations insanity
I don't even know her name
The first letter I do
But what do I say
I have no game
Because it has no rules
Hence why I feel confused
Focused on the wrong one
Permission to redirect Your Honor
On the grounds of speculation
Hearsay not welcome
No one knows
Because I don't how to say
So I look at her silently
Not enough falling stars
To wish
So I hope one day soon
I'll get tired of being quiet
Until I can stop ignoring my mind's Screams
SAY ANY SOMETHING
