Conflicting Love by Juniper Lee (if you give a mouse a cookie read aloud txt) 📕

Love
I bid you adieu
Turn aside
Let me alone
For I will not answer you
Or your pleas
Though you tug gently
At my heart
I turn my eyes away
From those you put in my path
For none shall be accepted
Ne'er I'll be persuaded
And no one will ever
Pull me from my promise
To stray forever
From the woeful path
Of love

A feeling I can't shake
When I'm asleep and I'm awake
You're the one who's on my mind
Now there's nothing I can find
That doesn't make me think of you
And I don't know what to do

I've never felt this way before
Sure love would never knock on my door
Must have been wrong, I guess
'Cuz now I'm nothing but a mess
Just wishing, waiting, thinking of you
Still I don't know what to do

I'm falling fast and falling hard
When I should be on my guard
Not thinking straight, but happy and free
I want to feel your arms around me
Pull me close and hold me to you
Maybe then I'll know what to do
