I Should Have Known

I Should Have Known

A Poem by Andrew (MJ) Nugteren
"

love songs these days

"
I don't wanna tell you that I long to see your face
I'm scared it my scare you away
and I don't wanna tell you that sometimes I think of you and smile
cause time with you is time enough for now

But I don't know how long I can stick around and be
just another friend time and time again and hold my tongue.
I don't know how long before it breaks me down inside
and all my strength has gone away, and it's too late before I say

I'm falling for you
I'm falling for you

I'm trying hard to be myself but I always seem to fail
I'm afraid I'm not the guy you know so well
cause every time I'm near you I just seem to lose my head
and spend my time admiring instead.

But I don't know how long I can stick around and be
just another friend time and time again and hold my tongue.
I don't know how long before it breaks me down inside
and all my strength has gone away, and it's too late before I say

I'm falling for you
I'm falling for you

I'm torn between the chance for everything and a price that I can't pay
losing you is something that I'd never chose so I'll just have to wait
but it kills me everyday

I'm falling for you
I'm falling for you
I'm falling for you
I'm falling for you

I don't wanna tell you sometimes I think of you and smile.

thank you BRAVE
The word falling for you mean just that...you fall into surrender or abyss. I just know that the feeling before you hit your destination is the greatest feeling in the world. You float through space only seeing the beauty of the situation. If its really love you can fall forever...

thank you :)
We've all been to this place...stuck in the friend zone. It's a hard place to be when you feel as though you have so much to give to a person and they just can't see passed what is right in front of their face. I actually like the repetition in this one...it reads more like song lyrics to me, which is nice. I could see this being put to music.

ok i might
I like the repetition in the poem. I could feel the hope and desire in the poem. Old wise saying. Take no chances. Know no pleasure. Thank you for sharing the excellent poem.
