No guts

watched her walk by again

did she look at me this time?

No eyes

didn't see it if she did

what would my name sound like with her voice?



No, she's too old for me

she's too smart for me

No, she's too much for me

and if not, I'll never know



No guts

sat next to her once

she even asked my name

don't remember what I said

No ears

everything she says is drowned by thought

of what a fool I'll sound like in response



No, she's too pretty for me

she's too much like perfect

No, she's got another on her mind

and if not, I'll never know



So I walk away with questions

that have nothing to do with her

they're all about my misconceptions

and my damn fear of her
