Watch over you

"Watch over you" by Shaan Ahmed Dedicated behalf of a dear friend to E.A. (no not Electronic Arts)

Watch over you

 

I remember the first time I ever saw you

The strangest feeling started to brew

You walked in through the classroom doors

And in that moment I knew I wanted to be yours

 

You weren’t someone I dreamed of

For my dreams never warned me of love

But with every picture I ever drew

All I had in my mind was to watch over you

 

Never had the courage to come say hi

For I feared the day that I’d have to say bye

The days you decided to glance here and smile

My heart remembered how it felt to be happy for a while

 

Too afraid to tell my friends

In fear this insanity extends

They’d never understand how much it pains

I’m losing my mind, I’m in chains

 

This isn’t healthy I know

But this obsession is something I can’t outgrow

No, no matter what pain this puts me through

I promise I will always watch over you

 

                Maybe one day I’ll tell you all about this kind of love

The kind of love that fits like a baseball in a glove

The kind of love that that writers would write of

The kind of love that I promised you’d be a part of

 

The love that doesn’t require two

The love that only requires me to watch over you
