"Her Pain, His Love, The Foe"   10 - 7 - 03



i want to tell you what i feel

i wish to show you what's real

i try to comfort the pain you know

but my shyness is my foe



i hold you now, you shed your tears

i don't know if i really elate your fears

but i do my best to console your woes

even with this shyness as my foe



for years now i've hid the true meaning

of my actions, you're blind in seeing

the true feelings i guise, don't show

because my shyness is my foe



i let you slip farther out of reach

because of the inner things i preach,

"it'll never happen, just go with the flow"

it governs me, my shyness is my foe



you're dead and gone, never had a chance

to entangle our hearts in a wanted romance

and at the viewing, i whisper for you to know,

"i'm sorry my love, my shyness was my foe..."
