you reach for me to draw me nearer
yet as soon as I'm within reach
you push me away
why is this
what is going through your mind
what demons are you fighting
that won't let you have me
what is so wrong about us being together
are you afraid of hurting someone
are you trying to protect yourself
if you are
do you think I could ever hurt you
I would rather kill myself
than to watch a single tear shed
because of me
so don't deny yourself
of what you truly want
what you have yearned for
with each breath you breathe
for quite some time
we have worked our way towards each other
we haven't been able to come as one
but now is our time
I feel it with every fiber of my being
