Welcome to Gaia! :: View User's Journal | Gaia Journals

Here, I dance in the ballroom,
with you at my side.
but you're not really there,
no matter how hard I tried
.
I can't help this silly little crush,
that I've tried so hard to deny.
but it always has lingered,
my will it does defy.

You don't see my saddened eyes,
you don't hear my shallow breath.
You don't feel my love,
that I will take with me in death.

I dance and I dance,
feeling awkward and scared
but I smile and laugh,
simply wishing you cared

So now my dance is done
but you don't even know I'm there.
So I'll continue to wait in the shadows,
Because, to her, I just can't compare.
