My Untold Secret

I feel your eyes on me
As I turn and walk away,
Although you truly can't see
The reason I can not stay.

On the balcony you stand
For I know that I must part,
Your pocket will hold your hand
Only you have held my heart.

I wish that I had told you
From the start it was a lie,
Yes I'm married this true
That is why I've said good bye.
