The pain subsides as the tide begins to rise,

Once again hiding my true self- Can't reveal him to no one else.

Took the chance of letting someone see- Now the pain is killing me.

It hurts so bad to know that Love is making me sad,

The one good thing I felt- Is now the one good thing I had.

Left in the past- With everything we had,

And everything we could have now- I must some how,

Leave the past behind and live in the now- But how?

How do you leave behind the best thing you've ever felt,

The best hand you were ever dealt- How do you settle for something else?

Nothing in this world could ever help- The pain that I now feel,

This can't be real- I can not deal.

With the emotions that now cirlce me- Hurting me,

Reverting me back to my past- To the memories that some how last.

Through all the bad times- They still engulf my mind,

Making me want you- Wishing you were mine.

Sending chills down my spine- Putting my mind in rewind.

All I can think of is you- Being here with me,

Loving me, hugging me- Holding me close,

Reminding me of what I want most- Your touch, your scent,

The feeling has me bent- Intoxicated by you,

And everything you do- This feeling must be true.

This is love- It has to be,

We have to be- With out you there is no me.

When I close my eyes- You're all I see.

My heart skips a beat- Anytime you come near,

My worst fear- Is you not being here.

So as the pain subsides- And the tide begins to rise,

I must hide my true self- Keep him locked inside.

Because it hurts so bad- To know that Love is making me sad.
