Sometimes
Sometimes I cry
when I realize youre gone
Sometimes I laugh
but thats not for long
Sometimes I frown
in the middle of the night
Sometimes I smile
but thats just out of spite
Sometimes I stand
for all that I love
Sometimes I sit
because I lose sight of it all
Sometimes I knee
to pray for what I believe
Sometimes I turn my back
but I am not proud
Sometimes I walk away
because I cant take anymore
Sometimes you look at me
sometimes you dont
sometimes youre there when I need you
sometimes youre not
Always I smile
when you appear
Always I run away
but thats just out of fear
Always I want you
youre such a great guy
Always I need you
I can feel it inside
Always I love you
I'm just not sure why
Never can I approach you
I'm much too afraid
Never can you know
because I just dont know why
Never will I utter your name
for you may laugh
Never will I tell you
it would hurt too much inside
Someday you may figure it out
that would be great
Someday you may approach me
and then I would sigh
Someday you may love me,
but for now, I die inside.
