Can't Say What I WantA Poem by Tyrae'There's no privacy anymoreI can't say what I want anymore This website is the only refuge The only closed door.
I can't cuss I can't tell you how I feel Even though sometimes I think it's a must I can't be sure that it's real
Here's the deal... I want you But I'm fighting myself So I can't have you
There's a war raging in my brain Something I don't understand But it all revolves around Not wanting to be hurt again.. I don't want to feel that feeling of there being a knife right in the middle of love
When you think you're in love, You do just about anything Even though the towers of doom are looming above standing tall, seeming meanacing You're so far up That you don't care if you fall You really just don't care at all
Until the day it just crashes on you The roof, The walls, The stairwell too. Your whole world is spinning And there's nothing you can do
It's a horrible feeling The worst kind of killing Because it happens inside. It carries on with you Until you're able to prove That it doesn't always end this way And that at the end of the day There's someone that can understand The words you don't say
When it comes to you I can't say anything There's only so much I can do
When I want to touch you, I can't When I want to see you without suspicion, I can't When I want voice my opinion, I can't If I were to do any of these things I'd undoubtedly feel like the evil villain
I just can't deal with it It's not good to start a relationship In the bottom of a deep dark pit There are snakes And sooner or later I'll get bit In my mothers eyes What I could do Would be a crime And I just can't commit
So I'm waiting Although I know I'm skating On very thin ice You might find this creepy But I'm sleepy And I'm not really in the mood to play nice
It doesn't make me happy to say this But these days I can't see through the mist There's a veil between what is right and wrong I can't tell what's too much and what's not enough I can't seem to get in tune and sing the same song It's been pretty rough And sadly I'm not that tough
