I hid my feelings well you thought me just a friend

But it all came out in light right here in the end

You comforted me when I was in doubt. You helped me through my fears

And now I stand before you today seeing truth through tears

It hurt to know the truth yet the same such a relief

In my heart I felt it but with my eyes there's no belief

The first time I met you, you took me by surprise

I heard the words clearly, but felt them shutting my eyes

You showed me a new world you taught things no one could

You helped me through my worst problems that no one ever would

At first you thought me to be a kid just acting normal

Then I opened up to you and you saw in me what?s formal

That meant something too you but at the time you didn?t know

I knew what it meant to me and why I felt love so

I was childish a bit I know but I grew in time with you

You took my life and opened it up showing me what?s true

You say you talk in riddles and get a bit confused

But when I hear your riddles I get a bit amused

Not because they are stupid, dumb, or even lame

But because I understand them and sometimes feel the same

You speak in them with such passion be they hate, peace, or love

And you keep your feelings trapped inside not releasing that white dove

I heard your voice for the first time, and you know what I heard?

I heard innocent sounds like a small baby bird

You spoke trying to be dark and full of mystery

I heard nothing but a flowing history

The history retold what we were about and what we?d been through

Although in the beginning I felt like you were depressed

I notice now that your soul just wants to be caressed

You had found your soul mate or at the time you thought to be

And when she broke your heart, finally you turned to me

I embraced every word you told me taking what I could comprehend

I know you felt like taking your life and pushing it to its end

But I pleaded and begged directing you a different path

Hoping you too could see life?s not a big wrath

I hope what I have said through out times of us together

Will lighten the burdens of your heart and soul like a feather

Now you know my feelings of what I feel for you

I pray that you open up and let me know yours too
