Afraid 2008

I look into your eyes Looking away Can’t be open about the way I feel Is it a fantasy or are we for real Afraid to hold your hand just for a second Can’t kiss, they might see. Why can’t I be happy Why can’t I be free Afraid to hold you , we never alone Phone calls, secretly You’re so patient, I feel sad We are together only when we’re alone I want them to know want them to see you are mine and I am yours why can’t we be happy afraid to say your name they would ask questions not even a friendly hug can’t look your way you’re not what they want for me afraid to make them sad I keep them happy Constantly smiling Even when I’m not they wouldn’t know They know what’s best for me They know what I need Can’t think about you What if they see the way I look at you When I’m alone I smile Thinking of you Feeling your presence Writing about you Day dreaming I feel so free So happy So in love So Afraid.
