Restlessness

There's a certain confusion

I keep feeling inside

Almost as if

My heart were an illusion

And I were not alive

Almost as if

You were not even real

Close to madness,

Don’t even know what I feel.

There’s a certain sadness

Living in my heart

Knowing

We’re two perfect strangers

Breathing miles apart

Loving

This strange feeling

That you might feel the same

Having

To accept that prob’ly

I’m foolish, even lame

Feeling

This soul’s in so much danger

This time, no help from above

Being

Happy and sad, hopeful and mad

Being … in love !?!
