She Doesnt Have To Know

Marlon Pitter

For Sara

Should I let Sara know how I feel about her?
I want to win her heart, and I’m dying to be in her arms,
But I won’t say sweet words to entice her.

I wish I could be near her as often as possible,
But I can’t let her know that I care about her.
If I don’t talk to her, how else can I reach her heart?

She seems to be quite happy with her fiancé,
So I don’t want her wrapped in an eternal triangle.
I must prevent my lust for her from showing.

She may not understand how my love blaze for her.
I can hardly stand to see her engagement ring.
I need to get a grip on myself and control my thinking.

How can I get the girl whom I love out of my mind?
I want to tell her that she’s the reason I’m hurting,
But I’ll leave her alone so she can concentrate on her life.

I wonder what she’d do if I approach her about it.
Maybe it’s better to let things remain as they are.
She doesn’t have to know that I live just next-door.
