Getting Real
So sad, so true,
My silent feelings for you.
Can't speak, can't seek,
I hide when I am weak.
Tears well, heart fails,
Loveless life so frail.
Remembering laughter and joy,
Love is not a toy.
Memories and dreams,
Lost to silent screams.
I didn't know the truth
In my youth.
To learn too slow,
To fall down, to grow.
To feel,
It's hard to get real.
