Wishes That Never Come True
by lisa
I find myself falling and falling
down to the pit of my heart
When I try to get this off my mind
those feelings begin to start
I woke last night and saw her
within my mind so clear
Sometimes it seems like agony
to want to have her near
It's just like a little poison
that tastes so good as well
Is there hope of an antidote?
I suppose only time will tell
When she suddenly appears to me
in reality or in dreams
I feel like I am helpless
there is no flight it seems
My mind will dwell on something else
and then at once she's there
Creeping into my restless mind
my soul is then laid bare
When I think of her I get feelings
I've never known before
It's like being intoxicated
and want her more and more
Love is not so clear to me
I do not know it well
But everytime I think of her
my heart begins to swell
I thought that infatuation
was just a passing thing
Those silly brief emotions
that makes one want to sing
Yet in this case I wonder
why it's lasted so very long
Years of knowing her has not changed
This feeling that grows strong
Yes, at times I am ashamed
of feeling the way I do
I swear I've tried ten thousand times
to think this want's not true
But as my life continues
I'll bear this mysterious pain
Unique to me these feelings
they're euphoric and they're strain
Yet, in the end it's all the same
Wishing things that never come true
A love that cannot ever be had
Is a love that we barely knew
