The Fear To Fly

The moon shines bright As I lay awake. It's late at night With thoughts I can't shake. He's on my mind, Always and once again. I've just got to find My way back to him. If only he could see What I feel in my heart, What he is to me; Can't stand being apart. If he could see as I do When I close my eyes. If he only knew The dreams I visualize. If he could just feel What I couldn't say, He'd know it was real, Why I ran away. I feared so deep within To allow happiness to flow, Only to be taken away again; Destroying my heart and soul. Now since I've come to realize To not have him by my side, Never again to look into his eyes; All that I am will have died. Our hearts together will bring A bond that'll never die, Mending our broken wings, So together we'll fly. (4/5/00)
