everyday, i look into the crowd searching for the one who is different

the one who might accept me for who i am cause no one else will
so i watched you from the distance

i am seriously shy
i don't know why but it's how i am
i would like to be your friend

cause you don't seem to have anyone
i see you everyday and you know this happens everyday

i don't wish to approach you cause i'm afraid of your rejection
i know i will care if you do as well

I like this... it reminds me of myself, wishing for someone to accept me for who I am... Nice job
