Yours to Hold

Hey guys. Sorry this is so short, but it's my first story so far.
Song: "Yours to Hold" by Skillet
I like you. That's right, Oliver Oken. I, Lilly Truscott, your best friend, like you. A lot. Maybe even love you. But will you ever know? Probably not.
I see you standing here
But you're so far away
Starving for your attention
I see you everyday. I talk to you, smile, and laugh at your corny jokes, yet still you're clueless. Every day, I see you flirt with the other girls, and I feel like ripping my heart out of my chest would be less painful. Can't you see how much it hurts me when you go out with another girl? When are you going to realize that the right girl is right in front of you?
Every single day
I find it hard to say
I could be yours alone
You will see someday
That all along the way
I was yours to hold
I want to tell you so badly how I feel. I want to be free of all the pain, all the confusion and turmoil inside me. But I'm too scared. Afraid that you'll reject me. Afraid that you don't feel the same way I do, or you feel that way for someone else. So, once again, I'll keep my mouth shut and hope you can see through the iron-clad wall around my heart. Because, let's face it, you'll never find it out from me. Only complete and total desperation would force those words to come to my lips with you in front of me. I could tell your parents before I could ever tell you how I feel. The whole world would know before you, you donut…My donut.
I'm stretching but you're just out of reach
You should know
I'm ready when you're ready for me
And I'm waiting for the right time
For the day I catch your eye
To let you know
That I'm yours to hold
