Reaching For What I Want

Many lies have been told
Every heart is so cold
I can bear this pain for now
Because my soul is bold

Wanting to know which path I should take
I don't want to see my caring heart break
How much will this world we love quake
Because of the burden I carry and hold

I wish they could see how much I feel
For you my undying love is real
They only tease and they only taunt
I wish they all understood what I want...
