so close yet so far

you were the first person i liked in college

even as strangers, i could feel that you were good

your aura bears no hostility, only warmth

only friendship.

as the years went by

i never stopped taking peeks

i couldn't stop the what ifs

now i can't stop what is.

now i hear you're looking

for someone to hold

for someone to be with

i hope but i know

or is it just me

is it all in my head

am thinking too much

and doing too little

maybe i should 

maybe i shouldn't

is this right

or am i wrong

were you the one pushing me off

or was it me that kept my distance

 your world would still turn regardless

and maybe that's why... i stay so close but keep you so far
