Hiding away

Behind thick walls I stay

Safe from hurt but sad and grey

So many things afraid to say

I hold it all inside as I begin to fray

Unsure of where it will all go

When it all comes crashing down will I drown or flow

So depressed from the answers I do not know

Thoughts on my mind that make my heart sink so low

Afraid of being yet again hurt and alone

As you have discovered me and a place in my heart you have grown

I know I can’t promise what even to me is unknown

I only hope that in your love I can take shade

Without you my soul begins to fade

I can’t stop what has already been made

Love can by kind and gentle like a flower or painful like a blade

Endless tears for you that could fill the sea

If only you and I could just be

Without you there is no me

Falling to the shadows as I bleed

So where ever you go I will follow your lead

Somehow you have managed within me to grow love’s seed
