Speechless Without Words

speechless 
standing off into the distance gazing your way
looking at you the beauty you are to me
attracts my attention towards you
not being able to say a word 
hurts the most
speechless without words

speechless 
not being able to pull away
just to glance from time to time
and you are always on my mind
realizing your beauty still
that gleam of sparkle in your eye
leaves me in a trance
and my heart dance 
stuck in my tracks
speechless without words

speechless 
something keeps pulling me 
it draws me near
to come close to you
sometime I think I hear you call my name
but, I turn and walk the other way
speechless without words

speechless
and it was the very first time we met
you acted like you hated me
but, I was determined we would be
the best of friends
and you treated me bad back then
still I would do anything for you
but, I would just stand there looking
speechless without words
