I swore I gave up on him
He was silent yet observant
He watched and understood
He was a wallflower

Lately we talk so much more
He's so much more complex than I thought
Yet he still holds back

If I ask something personal
His wall will come up
And then it's all downhill from there

He'd rather message me
Even if we're 2inches away from each other
"Sorry, but this is what I do"

I wish I could make him understand
I only keep trying to chip at his wall
Because I care

Every little chip into the wall
Reveals a little glimpse of treasure

Wow it's hell
When falling for a wallflower
