Click hereI sit and try to think of nothing
but your eyes pierce the blankness
and my heart races as visions of you
dance through my head.
How can I tell you how I feel
when I can't decide myself?
The guardian who protected my heart for so long
is no longer his post, and i am afraid.
All the people who have come through my life
each kept at a safe distance
never to know who I really am, what I really think
But you slice through my defenses with an honest smile as your knife.
So how to I keep up the fight? Dare I take the risk
with my heart exposed, quivering with fear?
Can I say these things to you or will I just let you slip away quietly
with only the ache of your absence to keep me company?
