Speechless

Why is it that every time you come around, I don't know what to say? You make me speechless, and it's rare that that happens. I get so nervous that I'm going to make a fool of myself and say something wrong. I get nervous that I'm going to do something wrong, or that is going to make you look away. How badly I want to be able to just talk to you without fear, but yet, every time... I go speechless.

I want to know you; I want a friendship. It's never been hard for me to talk to a guy and develop that friendship; however, with you it seems impossible. Is it because you are different? Is it because you are better than anyone else I've known that I've been interested in? Is it because you have a lot of the qualities that I want in a companion? I don't know. I don't know why it's so hard to talk to you.

But... why does it seem like it's so hard for you to talk to me? Why does it seem that you will ignore me... even in an empty room? Are you afraid of me? Have I done something wrong? Again... I don't know.

I do know... you leave me speechless!
