Fighting feelings


Want to be by your side,
but I dare not approach you.
I run and I hide,
yet I wait by the phone.

Dream of holding your hand,
frightened that you won't want to.
Will my dreams turn to sand
if I make that call?

Only once have we met.
I don't know if you like me.
You have my heart, yet
it is only a loan.

Lay awake in the night,
already refugee
from my heart and the fright.
Will you make my love fall?
