Do you know what it's like to want someone you can't have?

Someone just out of reach; just a step away

Someone you can't touch, yet see everyday.

The pain in your heart sharpens each time you see their smile

Knowing your not the one to cause their happiness.

What's wrong with me?

Why aren't I good enough.

Why can't you be mine?
