If I say how I feel
we may go from nothing but friends
to more than,
or to a little more than
nothing.
If I speak up
our forged memories could fade,
or we will create new memories
that will never fade.
If only I say how I feel
we could move from this place of ambiguity,
but fear freezes my feelings forever:
my fear for following a flowing heart.
If you only say how you feel
and stop stating we are nothing
we may move from walking side by side
to hand in hand.
But you lie to yourself;
lie to me,
but we never lie together.
Keeping how we feel unsaid
keeps us from enjoying life's journey together;
keeps me instead dreading the journey apart.
