I Have Secrets

I have secrets
Things no one can know
Some that I keep hidden
And ones that I can show

The secrets that are hidden
No one knows about
Just the ones who tell me them
This I cannot shout

The secrets I can show
Just to people I trust
If any one finds out
Hurting is a must

My Fellow

I was sitting in my bedroom
The sun was shining yellow
I sat there and thought to myself
I need myself a fellow

I had no clue what was in store
On that summers eve
I thought i'd found myself a man
This I could not believe

The moon was floating all around
The crescent shape it took
I just sat by my window
And took the greatest look

Night time came around again
Sleeping by my window
Soon I had come to awake
To a great crescendo

A fellow I could call my own
During them several years
The one who would keep me
And take out all my fears

If I Could Write the Words To Say

My mind is flustered, beyond the means.
As to ask, "Where do I go from here?"
Tick, tock, tick, tock. Waiting, waiting, waiting.
 
Tremble, tremble, goes the skeleton of my hands.
If I could write the words to say.
Lets just start by saying, "Hey."
 
I reached out, and fell short of too many words.
The words I could of used to turn this situation around.
Fell dead, lift up, break down, stand up.
 
I've used to many words tonight.
Vocabulary struck the soul of my being.
I balanced out the meaning of what had become between the two of us.
 
If i could write the words to say, Let us begin with, "Hey."
What is there to become of man kind, but a normal day in reality.
I reached out, fell dead, i lifted up, just to fall back down again.
 
I woke up one morning, trying to find out what was left of you and I.
It only gets worse when i scream, when i cry, the too many words that i've used 
tonight.
But  I fell short of the three words that were ment to be spoken.
 
"I Love You."
 
I reached out, fell dead, stood up, broke down, just to stand up all over again.
 
"I Love You."
