Chapter 107 - Mute you out.

Another layered thought.

I have a crush.

My heart's not making sense...

I'm not faking,

She's been breaking

Down the walls

Of my defense...

-

Wait one more day?

LET YOUR GUARD DOWN...

Go your own way?

NO ONE'S HERE NOW...

-

SAY, OH!

-

I've been thinking about

The profound

All around.

You're a dangerous sound

You resound

From the ground.

I've been trying

So hard

But I can't

Mute you out.

Steady shaking

My guard,

I remember

Your shout.

-

OH!

OH!

I remember

It now.

OH!

OH!

No, I can't

Block it out.

YO!

YO!

Hear it

Echoing now.

YO!

YO!

No, I can't

Mute you out.

-

Another minute bought.

Memories wrought

Of words he left unsaid...

I can't blame you.

I won't shame you.

Her room's still locked in my head...

-

Wait one more day?

BUILD ONE MORE FENCE...

Watch her ghost play?

NO RECOMPENSE...

-

SAY, OH!

-

I've been dreaming about

All the things

We could be.

But the truth of it is

You aren't dreaming

Of me.

Still, I know what it is

To need time

Just to heal.

I can't help you with that,

But I know

How it feels.

-

OH!

OH!

Steady climbing

A hill.

YO!

YO!

Never make

Time to heal.

OH!

OH!

Still you grind,

Life a mill.

OH!

OH!

I'll be here

Waiting still...

-

Wait.

I'll be coming down.

And you'll be going up.

You may pass me by.

Or am I losing touch?

I've been flying high,

But you aren't looking up...

Will I pass you by?

Shit, I don't mean to rush!

-

Rush.

Rush.

Why wait?

Please touch...

All of my buttons,

I need it so much.

You've been feeding my crush,

And I try not to blush,

But my heart skipped a beat

When our hands slowly touched.

-

Trying hard not to hope

But I think

We could grow...

I won't hold that too close

Or it might

Lay me low...

I'll just stay in my lane.

Hear your voice

Ringing out...

If it echoes for me

Then I won't

Mute you out...
