Concealment

Pounding is the heart

When yours is next to mine

Escaping reality

For just seconds at a time

Giving in and pulling away

Just to see your face

Getting lost

In the sudden kiss' grace

Hold fast or run away

Questions lead to answers that way

They say absence makes the heart grow stronger

But nearer to you the distance is longer

One touch, one look and again I am lost

Feeling this, what is my cost?

Have I paid the dues of such crimes beheld

Lies and deciet together meld

Away the form of what becomes

When hearts beat like ogre drums

So am I to accept the last

When all is gone from my past

Moving forward to futures end

Such things around the bend

Reaction itself has no place

When I gaze upon your face

Closed eyes I have no more

For you Ive found behind that door

Waiting for me 'til morrows day

With I love you yet to say
