Too Much Love

I love you too much

But I can't show it enough

I just can't show that I care enough



What am I to do

Can't get enough of you

You haunt me night and day

Oh won't you go away



I hide my emotion

Which causes commotion

I can't get close to you

Cuz I'm afraid of you



It's easy to pretend

To just be a friend

But secret feelings are there

So you'd better beware



I'm afraid to share

The way that I care

Cuz I might scare you away

Or I might lead you astray



I'm too innocent for you

I wouldn't know what to do

I would just tease you

Wouldn't know how to please you



I'm not good enough for you

I just don't know what to do

You deserve the best

I couldn't pass that test



So I'll leave you alone

Guess I can't call you my own

It just wouldn't work out

You don't know what I'm about

Author's Notes/Comments: 

another old one written in my tomboy stage and refusing to date and yet feeling attraction that could not be denied but not knowing how to act on it and afraid of it...feelings, desires...geez...scary...when in doubt...push them away or don't give a clue what they mean to you cuz afraid to deal with the reality of it...just daydream and have your crush and hope it is enuf but it never is...it doesn't work...gotta find a better way...to deal with these emotions...
