this simple concept,
can bring clarity to all
or it can sting like a bee.

so simple in nature,
yet so hard to deliver.
what a mystery.
Hm. What is it?

afraid of rejection,
waiting constantly
for a "right" time.
just speak truth
into their lives;
it's always the
right time to
do that.

this forbidden feeling,
so strong,
yet so wrong.

it could end all we've built,
it could break our hearts.

it could leave us breathless,
it could make our hearts ever so glad.
stupid feelings...

those three little words,
they warm my heart
like no others.

saying them for the first time
gives me butterflies,
hoping you feel the same.

Every day I feel my body getting older,
my soul wiser,
but the way my heart breaks
shows me I will forever have a youthful heart.

love is more than a feeling,
it's an action.

it's being there for someone,
it's showing them how much you care.

you still love me,
i know this.
but you aren't loving me.

i still need you,
after it all.

you don't need me,
i know this.

but how can i let go
when i love you so?

"it's so cold in there now",
"where?" he asks,
"in your eyes".
