Two Sides Part One

Uncertain about honesty.
To tell the truth could hurt. 
Not only me, but also you. 
Can't display my emotions
To the window shoppers who pass by. 
For they'd sk me about the look in 
My eyes, and all I'd have is lies. 
Sheild my mind from those 
Unpredictable thoughts. Can't ever 
Let them get to me. Or allow 
Them to control me. Have to fight, 
Got to protect, a sensitive heart 
And a troubled mind. On the very 
Brink of insanity. Can't accept 
These feelings. Don't want love, I 
Just cant help but to still need it. 
Want acceptance, but I'm still 
Wishing for independence. 
Two sides to every emotion, 
Now which side will be chosen?
