Within My Reach

You're right there.

Right there. Our knees are basically touching.

I could tell you. We're both here, so close, yet here I am sitting here Like a coward. I could easily just say it.

"Hey."

"I think I'm in love with you."

But I dont say it.

I just look at you every now then.

We make eye contact.

This is it.

It's now or never I tell myself.

The contact breaks.

You're there within my reach yet so far away at the same time.

I keep hoping you'll reach out to me but I'm losing hope.

I think it's best if I give this up.

Because no matter how close you are to me, I cant seem to grasp the words that are right within my reach.
