Love's Blues
Why do I fight against myself?
When all I wanna do is love you.
Why should I feel ashamed?
When all I wanna do is hold you.
My mind keeps repeating no
And I’m afraid to just let go.
Why am I hurting?
Am I hurting you too?
So many things I wish I could tell you.
And oh so many times I would run to you.
My heart is breaking
When I am near you.
Wishing I can reach out to feel you
And whisper how much I adore you.
Things are happening so fast
Beyond my control
And I cannot fathom why I anticipate your
Smile
because when I am graced with your presence
I simply wish to be
Miles
away from you.
Why am I hurting you?
Why are you letting me hurt you?
Love makes my heart blue because I’m in love with you
Happiness does not equal joy
It’s a ploy to get my heart open for receiving you
And I am not ready for it
I am not ready for you
I am not ready for love just yet.
