Denying you


You have no idea. You were it for me. My life was full of meaningless conversation, Empty collisions between my lips and a couple different strangers. You gave me a feeling ive only ever read about. Now this emotion, I refuse to carry it out, I'll deny it, time and time again. Its what i do I love people, I'll make them feel special Without needing anything in return. But that day... You made my insides burn, Never in my life had i felt a concern, I thought it was my turn. I saw, You were aware. So i tried to convince myself that you didnt care. I tried To deny it time and time again. But i did what i do best, I made you feel invincible, Like you were one of a kind Just like the rest. Maybe it was own kind of acid test. And i tried, So damn hard not to convince myself with a false notion. That never letting you know, was all because i wanted you to confess your emotion. That never letting you know, there was a difference between you and them... About that feeling.. And why I denied it time and time again. Truth is, I was scared. Just know that no one else has ever compared.
