RATING: PG
FEEDBACK: Please!! I didn't get much back when I killed Riley and made Angel sing, so I though I would try another bad attempt at fic. Angsty this time...
SUMMARY: Buffy's POV when Angel trys to come back to her after Graduation Day
NOTES: Not really spoilers, just Angel leaving in Grad 2. You people have me stuck on song fics.

Like anyone would be
I am flattered by your fascination with me
Like any hot-blooded woman
I have simply wanted an object to crave
But you, you're not allowed
You're uninvited
An unfortunate slight

You're there. I know that you are...... I can feel you watching me from the window. I don't know what to do. I want you more than I know, but you scare me deep down inside. You have some strange power over me, and you make me want what I know I can't have...... Tonight you make a move. As I stand on one side of the glass, you come to stand on the other. Staring deep into my eyes. I almost feel like you are looking at my soul.....

Must be strangely exciting
To watch the stoic squirm
Must be somewhat hard telling
To watch them burn me shepherd
But you you're not allowed
You're uninvited
An unfortunate slight

You can see the battle I am fighting inside... I can almost hear you telling me to give in, but don't give in. I am torn between my love and my fear and hurt and I don't know which way to go. I look into your eyes hoping to find an answer to help me.... You look at me with such a fire in your eyes that I feel like I am melting into a puddle in the floor....

Like any uncharted territory
I must seem greatly intriguing
You speak of my love like
You have experienced love like mine before
But this is not allowed
You're uninvited
An unfortunate slight

I can see the love deep in your eyes and I know that you can see the love reflected in mine. You are my forbidden temptation. If I cross that line and invite you back into my life, I know that I will never be able to go back. I also know that if you left me again, I would die. I don't know what lays ahead. How will this affect tomorrow? Will it be better or worse than any other day that I have spent without you??

I don't think you unworthy
I need a moment to deliberate.

I turn away from the window, unable to think while I look at you. I look back over my shoulder as I walk towards the bed. With my eyes, I ask you to understand my uncertainty. You stare at me one last time before disappearing into the darkness. But I know that you will be back and one day, the window will be open for you.
