Tonight

Tonight as I layed there

With you by my side

I let myself be more of me

Not a single thing to hide

As you put aside your stubborn mind

And gave in to what you desire

After the short time we spent together

We just added fuel to our fire

But with the feelings that came next

Turning the tide from good to bad

The moment slowly faded out

As we realized what we couldn't have

I looked in to your eyes

The ones that kept me trying

To keep things great and have our fun

But now we must continue lying

To ourselves, each of us

To the people that we know

That what we felt and what we had

Was a short lived picture show

That may end in "I'm sorry"

That could result in nothing more

But it won't stop me from prying

At this slightly opened door

Author's Notes/Comments: 

What do you do, when you've come soooo close...and have lost it in an instant.
