Reaching For You
Closer and closer I walk to you
Just happy to be in your presence
I learn
I help
I laugh
I listen
I do everything I can to make you happy
Because that is all that I am willing to achieve
Closer and closer I crawl to you
My head is heavy, My body bruised
But it doesn't matter
As long as I can see you smile
As long as I can know that it's because of me
The soaring of my heart numbs the pain
Closer and closer I reach to you
So close I can feel the burn
I am closer than I ever hoped to be
But still, I reach
Ignoring the decayed parts of me
that I have neglected in favor of you
And then you're gone
Moved on
Because you've found someone
worth reaching for
And
I'm
Not
And I never will be
But,
I knew that from the beginning
and still
I reach
