When I First Saw You

By: Emily Rudgers


We first met in a random place, All I saw was your face
The beauty you personify, Like an angel in my eye
I wonder if I should speak, because I already want to kiss your cheek
I want to make you mine, but I can tell it’s not the time
But when you give me that flirty smile, my heart wants to fly a mile
I feel it so deeply, it goes through to the outside

Every time I would strike a nerve, I would know you’re better than I deserve
I would be smashing a butterfly, hoping I never make you cry
I would try to make you happy, even though I’m a little sappy
I make things hard at first, but I promise that’s the worst

When you realize I’m depressed, I know what you’ll suggest
There’s this pain within my chest, And I’m trying to do my best
But I know that I’ll regret, That it showed when we first met
You know I’m not your optimum, so you eliminate the problem
When you walk away from me, just know that I agree
I’m toxic to be around, so I won’t even make a sound
You’re smile I ignore, so that you can soar
You’re future I protect, by making sure our paths don’t intersect
From what I can foresee, you deserve to be free.
