      Day after day thinking about you
      Wondering if this haunts you too
      Do you care as much as I do?
      Or am I just another face?
      Waiting to see you again
      Knowing any time could be the end
      If you move on what would I do?
      Nothing left to hold on to
      Thoughts racing as I try to fall asleep
      Are you lying awake thinking about me?
      Or are you sleeping careless?
      Do you stare at the moon and wonder if I’m watching it too?
      Do you wonder if I’m thinking of you?
      Tell me you do and it’s not just me
      Tell me so I can be free
      Of this doubt and hesitation
      If you tell me you don’t
      Who do I have left?
      Could we possibly stay best friends after that?
      Or would you stop responding and tell yourself you forgot?
      If you never see me again what’s the point?
      There is no point
      To hoping
      To wanting
      But all I can do is wish
      Are you wishing too?
      Are you scared like me that I’ll push you away?
      I won’t. All I wish for is for you to stay
      And for me to know so I’m not guessing anymore
      But if you never see me again what’s the point?
      There is no point
      To hoping
      To wanting
      But all I can do is wish.

        Oh my goodness, that was wonderful! I loved it. My favorite line was “Do you stare at the moon and wonder if I’m watching it too?” Another favorite was “Could we possibly stay best friends after that?” and then “Are you scared like me that I’ll push you away? I won’t. All I wish for is for you to stay.” I highly enjoyed this! Great expression of human emotion.
