I'll Cave

mascara rivers run down my cheeks,
as i walk faster,
turn up my music louder,
and try with all my strength
to put space between us.

because i know
just one glimpse into ur eyes,
and i feel like ur seeing into my soul,
and my heart melts all over again;

one touch
and i know i never want anyone
but you to hold me close;

one kiss
and its as bittersweet as a summer rainstorm,
something we long for in a drought,
and savor when it comes...
one kiss
and i know there's no going back.

but i cant do all of that again.
it makes things seem too easy--
a smile crosses my face when u look at me,
i feel safe when im in ur arms,
and it seems like when our lips meet,
for a second the world stops spinning
and everything will be perfect forever.

but thats why i walked,
because i dont trust myself
to say what i want.
i know if i try,
ill end up in ur arms, (the only place i ever wanna be)
but i wont say anything,
ill just ignore it
until im back here--
running away.
