So say, "What are you waiting for? Kiss her, kiss her."

i need you like a heart needs a beat.

i miss you.

Windows down and our moods on ten.

Faded tees and frayed knees

I need a voice to make this sound right

Wrinkled sheets and comfy seats

This fire will only blaze as high as we let it

s'mores that will last until the end of the summer

Laughs, smiles, and songs that will last forever

New jokes, new nicknames.

Pinky promises and Triple dog dares

We'll plan for the future,

while we try to make this moment last

Pool hair and bare feet

The passing of supplies from hand to hand

Sometimes tossed through the flames

The faces change but the feeling remains the same

A small circle of heat as the day fades away

We only want to sing you to sleep.

Drop the subject if it's not worth your time

Drop the conversation if it bores you

Drop the girl if she's no longer the same

She'll fake it if means you'll stay

Better off as friends.

She wishes that she could feel the same

Love her with all your heart,

and she'll love you as her best friend

Oh, if only it were just so simple

if only you could change feelings on a dime

She dreams of caring the same way but it's still not the same

Pour out your heart

then try to hold it back

clasping your hands to your chest

trying to push it all back in

better off as lovers

you'll always be the option

she'll always be your priority.

How hard is it?

Scenarios flicker through my head

as my eyes dance in the present.

The if only's and what if's pirouetting across my consciousness

I stare at your eyes, a locked gaze

my mind tumbling as I fumble to find something to say

The impossibles and improbables worming their way

up to the front of my thoughts

demanding to prove their value,

daring me to change the way it all works.

How hard would it be to raise an arm and caress your cheek?

How hard would it be to grab your hand in mine?

How hard would it be to lean forward

and conjoin our lips

In the one way I wish I would, but never could

I'm too shy

too full of excuses to make

I blush and stammer,

pretending to be content with the way things are,

when I so desperately long to forge new paths.

It comes as a surprise to many

how we've come this far without really moving

sometimes it pains me how we remain at a standstill

your shyness building an insurmountable wall

my hidden insecurities so cleverly concealed

sometimes it seems so apparent how much I don't deserve you

sometimes, your beauty shocks me

Being around you fills me with an awe,

Being with you makes me bubble over with happiness

You make me happy in a way you could never know

I fill with warmth at the mention of your name

You make me feel

and yet, even after so much time has past

it still feels like new every time

in some ways, it's unfortunate.

We've only just barely made any real progress

But at least we're still on the road.

Insecurities and Unshared Doubts.

boys don't have it as hard as girls do.

You're just jealous because we're young and in love.

Early mornings are a thing to cherish.

The freckled Vixen with brown eyes

Roll down the windows,

Singing to the wind

Leave it all behind.

I can't help but feel addicted

We laugh, we sing,

This is my everything.

Dip our fingers in paint,

We'll paint the city red

We'll paint the sky blue

We'll paint rainbows out of clouds

We'll light this whole fucking town on fire.
