I could only feel within my heart
How many times it was torn apart.
How could I pretend not to let it show,
The many times a “you” had to go.
You tell me words I’ve already heard
To win me; actions speaks the truth
Louder than words.

Still I would like to try to believe in you.
I will close my eyes and picture us,
The two of us so much in love,
I will fill you up with my entire caress;
Female sunshine and nothing less.
And though I am so afraid of what
I feel, I need for you to tell me it’s real,
And I will try… I will try my best to
Believe in you.
