Tread Carefully

Folder: 
Love

How can I want what I do not?

I find it strange but true!

This thing i want...

This thing I fear

A different form of loving you

 

I try to chain

To hide... suppress

To cage this thing inside

 

It's like you tease - provide the key

Unlock the doors

And fling them wide

 

I wonder if it's now too late

To crawl back through my cages gate

To hide behind those iron bars

To keep from ripping you appart

 

I'm loose

I'm free

But I'm not me

I'm warning you... tread carefully
