(The woman I wont get)

As I sit here, I feel the pain you have given me
My chest tenses up with, longing, despair, shame
A tear rolls down and splashes the paper as I write this.
perhaps its becouse of my want of you
my craving my thirst for your lips
when im around you i think of many things mostly this

When I'm around you
I resist the urge to draw you near
and touch my lips to yours
oh how joyous that moment would be.
To imagine you wanting more

When I'm around you
the lover inside of me confesses his feelings to you
but he is a slave of my flesh and what is a slave to do?

When I'm around you.
All i can do is talk for fear of not saying enough
but i end up not saying the right things
my heart says i must.

(the woman I wont get)

When I'm not around you.
my fist clench up as tears splash this page
i feel like an actor in your auditorium being booed off your stage.

When I'm not around you.
I dream nightmares of you holding someone else
the thought of it brings me shame
its strikes me below the belt

When I'm not around you
I wait, terry, bunker down for you
others worthy of my love I ignore one maybe two

(The woman I wont get)

Im still sitting here, upset, ashamed, in love.
I want to scream from the rooftops paint the sky with my affection
I know expressing my feelings is right,
but a tear just hit the page
as I continue to write.

The woman I wont get
The woman i wont forget
