Her

I wrote this about a girl I had a crush on. She had no idea but this was just a way for me to get my feelings out there.

How can I explain the way that I feel?
What happens when the words seem all too real?
Am I a fool for feeling this way,
Thinking of her night and day?
If only she knew; if only I could tell her,
I know my heart would feel all the better.
I've been alone for a while, but now the truth sinks in;
Who am I to go alone, when my life is just about to begin?
Life can be a lonely highway; alot of bumps and curbs along the way,
But as long as there's someone to hold on to, all the bad things seem to stray.
I'm no prophet or wise man, just a stubborn fool with a feeling.
When will I stop being selfish, and my heart begin healing?
I've searched for answers both near and afar,
In every face, through many hours.
I think it's finally time to put trust in God;
Not in myselfl; it hasn't led me that far.
Still every song I play she's there; my rhyme and reason;
The reason for believing that only grows with every season.
I've been cheated, lied to, and led to the bottom,
But thinking back now, they all taught me somethin'.
I shouldn't have to change myself to be loved by another;
Just be who I am, and in the meantime, learn from others.
One day She'll know how I feel; I just pray I won't be too late.
I don't want to leave these words unsaid;
That could be my biggest mistake.
I'm only a man, and Lord knows I'll always be imperfect,
But for now I'm looking for someone, to fill this hole in my heart that's been such a burden.
So here I'll write, buying my time, just thinking about the day.
When can I reveal to her these words I couldn't say?
