Is it a sin this time? Is love ever really true? Could you break the rules Just this once, Could you bend your view And match it with mine? I'm not going anywhere I shouldn't, And if the question's spoken, It won't be by me, For my heart only speaks in riddles, Because it is as afraid ask, As it is afraid to answer. The sun sets on golden eyes, Drinking in the dreams whispered, Shared between eyes that seem to scream Words that are heard, but not spoken. I know what's right for me, Even if that's not how it may seem, Because looks can be decieving, And truths can be lies, And wisdom and folly are one and the same, But they are simply viewed with different lights. I feel the ground beneath my feet, But it slips like sand underneath the sea's tide, And claws of doubt and fear grasp at my ankles, And for the first time, I admit that I am afraid. The fear lies in the heartbreak, In the worry of the risk-- I do not dare move quickly, I hardly dare to breathe at all, But if the heart has found it's focus, If the fool has found it's prize, Then why should this potential be forsaken, In someone else's eyes? |
