Loving You From Afar Poem by William Mowell

I can't live without your touch, why can't I break this crutch


I need your love here tonight, you keep me searching for the light


I need the one I've never had, thinking about it makes me sad


I can taste your lips, I can feel your hips


I've reached a stop light in my soul, my mind like jello in a plastic bowl


Waiting for a green light pass, I wont let this be the last


I love you from afar, in the front seat of my car


Never knowing your touch, but needing it, I could write a book and make it a huge hit


But I could never ask you out, even though my heart wants to shout


Loving you from afar, right out side my car


I can't seem to knock on the door, as my heart falls to the floor


So close but still a hundred miles away, maybe today I'll knock on the door and stay


I'll keep loving you from afar, another day in my car


Right outside your door, I need you even more than before


I sit here day after day, like a stalker just miles away


Never able to go to your door, always walking the floor


I try to look cool, but always ending up the fool


You never notice me, and I can never make you see


I can love you like that, but all you want is an act


My love is real and beating, is your's even breathing


A manikin to prounce around with, and you always plead the fifth


I have an empty pedestal waiting for someone, all the paperwork has been done


All you have to do is sign on the dotted line, and celebrate with a glass of wine
