Keep my phone off do not disturb,

just incase you want to say a word.

Hoping for more even though I know better.

Typing up paragraphs then deleting every letter.

You tell me in words Im a yes, but your actions make me feel like a no.

Holding on to any reason to stay even though I know I should let go.

I thought that you saw me, but all you saw was a place to rest your sorrow.

In your eyes I was nothing more than a heart to borrow.

Always open, my walls were never built that high.

Reaching out hoping for someone who cares to take a look inside.

Overly hopeful with a loyal heart.

I set myself up to be easily torn apart.

Wishful thinking, caught up in the wonder of what could be.

Seeing the best part of your souls, blinded to what it cost me.

Giving out my love for all who need it to find.

Searching for a part of me that i lost long ago.

Hoping when i find it that it’ll help me grow.

Searching for a piece of me i buried deep inside.

A piece of me i hung up and crucified.

Ready to accept that my feelings are valid too.

Ready to admit I’m ready for something new.

Ready to explore a part of me that i tried to push away.

Lying about my whereabouts never got me anywhere good;

Keeping all my feelings to myself just left me alone and misunderstood.

I know better than to fall for someone who isn’t giving me the time of day.

But on the other hand I’m over here desperate to give my love away.

Trippin’ over my emotions, fallin’ over feelings.

But I guess being real with myself will start the healing.

I’ll keep lookin for that person and wearing my heart on my sleeve.

I don't doubt your beauty, or that you make my heart skip a beat.

It's your intentions that I question, but I won't lie, I'm intrigued.

Did we cross paths for a reason? Are you someone I was bound to find?

I'm just trying to get to know you, understand the workings of your mind.

Did chance bring you here, or maybe I'm someone you need?
