Fear That Stayed
emotions flow like a river
or more like a waterfall
you tell me to tell you what I'm feeling
but i do everything to stall
it's easy to explain to a stranger
the things that go through my head
i don't fear what they shall think because
it won't follow them to bed
but with you my every word and action
happens so carefully
i shake with fright on this thin ice
this is what you've done to me
I'm nervous with you all the time
though i say I'm not anymore
for still the fear that can't be ridden
of you walking out the door
it's happened once it can happen again
so why shouldn't i be afraid
you've gone and come several times before
and all this time I've stayed
the tears I've shed for you; many.
over a number to count
a river of tears, words, and fears..
you cease to know what they're about.
