A Lover's Fears

Forever doubtful
I’m under siege

My feelings dropping
from the sky like rain

There’s confusion in the air
I know it’s not fair

I want to open up
but I’m just too scared

Your gaze on me is so hot
you love me, you love me not

I’m slowly melting inside,
this feeling so good, I could almost die

The words linger
on your lips

I trace them with
fingertips

Just let go…and
say the words
I long to hear
