My Heart

Carefully beating,
Out the rhythm of your name.
As my head spins around
With thoughts of you it’s trying to tame.

This feeling within me,
Keeps ripping at my insides.
The wall of my chest,
Slowly longing for the right soul to be paired with.

All along in my mind,
I’m trying to find the words.
For I’m afraid to admit,
It’s you I’ve got a liking for.

It’s the person you are,
In the photographs I’ve seen.
The smile you wear,
That seems to gleam.

This feeling I’ll be trying to drown,
I’m afraid to move this way;
Slowly my hands will let go,
Of what is so far away.
