Benched

As i sit here and think about,
What it is about you...
My heart skips a beat
And my mind races too.
I look at your eyes,
And thats where its told,
Your mysterious story begins to unfold.
A man thats in love with a girl thats not here,
And the girl that is here has been living in fear.
She tries to stay strong because she's sees something there.
A man thats been hurt and needs tender care.
She steps up and holds him when life holds no slack.
Runs her hands through his hair and caresses his back.
The whole time she wonders, will it always be rough?
Will he ever truly love her? Will she be enough?
Will he girl that he left be the one that he longs for?
Will his mind always wonder if he should've done more?
Will he wallow in sadness or can they move on?
Will the doubt and the anguish ever be gone?
The girl that is here sits melancholy,
His friends, they all tell him but he's too blind to see.
She is falling quite fast and will hand him her heart,
She'll only be able if his past and him part.
For now she keeps trying, hoping he'll see...
That she is a good one, and always will be.
