Too Shy

He’s between a hundred pair of eyes
All alone with the look upon his face
Attractively standing and wondering

The face I have seen before
I have no recollection to remember
My heart speaks to go for him
It feels so right but my ego tells not too

We’re just looking at each other from afar
You smile and I smile and that’s all
Why can’t we have the strength to pursue?

Hopefully heaven will help
To give us the chance of love
Too shy to say
Too shy to admit
Too shy to believe
Too shy for love
And it’s all too bad for us
