Love in Secret

Innocent in the beginning
that's how it begins
but what if feelings turn
and want more than "just friends"?

I tell myself its a phase
that it's untrue
but i can't help but smile
now when i look at you.

We have always been close
all through the years
shared so many laughs
dried each other's tears.

Now i am confused
and scared as hell
because what if
our love were to fail?

I do not want these feelings
that keep me awake
i do not want to fall
for our friendship's sake.

So i keep smiling
acting as the best friend
my love will be in secret
until the very end.
