Unknown

dreams waking me from my sleep
my body aching to feel you
fate's lonely grip
seducing me like a child
hopelessly realizing I was 
in too deep
if only I'd known 
if you felt it too
I became aggressive and bold
taking chances  like never before
I just had to know
if we might have something more
I keep asking myself
what happened to me
completely losing control so rapidly
I guess only fools
trust their hearts to know
when love comes or when to let go
I continue to struggle with that decision
I thought I was smarter and strong
my head kept telling me
to do what is right
my heart said not to let
you ever know
that I am afraid of dying without you
and leaving this world alone
you will never understand I guess
just how much I love you
and what could have been
will always remain unknown
