Scared

Your eyes say what

Your mouth never will

And your mouth says

What your eyes will never prove.

—————————————————-

But don’t say what you know.

It doesn’t matter.

My feelings don’t show.

I won’t say what I know:

—————————————————-

That I’m just so scared

There will always be you

But yet there

Will never be you,

—————————————————-

That I’ll always

See you in my dreams

But I’ll never know

What it really means,

—————————————————-

That you will always

Have my heart

Though we will likely

End up worlds apart,

—————————————————-

That everything

I know we’ve both felt

I’ll never give

To someone else,

—————————————————-

That you are really

My only one

But I won’t have you

When all is said and done,

—————————————————-

I’m just so scared

That I’m so scared.
