I denied it more than I could
Only because it was more reassuring that way
It gave me comfort, somehow
No unjustifiable fear of losing something that was not mine
And no uneasy feelings
But as years passed, the harder it became
The heavier this feeling got
I feared it would just burst one day
Funny how things turned out the way it did
We grew up, separately
But I’m still afraid to say ‘hey’
If eyes could talk
You would have known
It has always been you
I couldn’t accept it either
I did not want to
But maybe I was wrong when I said the heart can be taught
I tried to stop it
And I obviously failed
I wouldn’t have written this if I didn’t
I never nurtured it
It just grew and grew
Like a fire in the woods
Burned everything it touched
And I laid on its ashes
It was useless to lie in the first place
Because again, it had always been you.
