Doubtful In Love
Again tonight reality taunts me
I am too timid to entertain my fears
That unspoken and uncertain feeling
Concealed deeply yet nurtured by years
A picture of acceptance have I slowly painted
With placid smiles on skeptical eyes
A pact with doubt I remain acquainted
For promises could be true or truthful lies
Have I lived for love or it lived for me?
I waver between imagination and fact
Often what ought may never be
Am I truly loved or playing an act?
