To Scared To Speak

I'm bound by these shackles of your leave that won't leave. You moved on back then but my heart, it won't grieve. Instead it denies truth and swears that you'll be back. I've tried so hard to fight, strength of will I will always lack. I'm so in love with you like there has never been love before. These goals, these hopes, these dreams mean nothing without you anymore. Even though unrequited these feelings may never cease. They'll never make it past my lips, though they day by day increase. So I'll listen to all your problems, And then you'll listen to mine. I'll still pretend you're just a friend, And tell you that I'm 'fine'.
