Dangerous Emotions

Dangerous
Emotions
Stirring deep inside
My heart beats
Faster and faster
I have to sleep
But I just can't leave
How do you touch me?
Reach way down deep
Pull from my soul
The words I wish to speak
But foolishly I stop you
And when you leave
I still can't sleep
My mind replays
Each and every scene
Adding in
Our words unspoken
To torment me
With what might have been
Had I not been so afraid
As I lie awake
And my mind replays
Each look and touch
I see the clues
The hints you drop
That me heart was deaf to
My eyes saw not
Tears wet my cheek
Will I see you again?
Another chance
To do it right
Or will you disappear
Like so many do
Around you I feel safe
But my heart still fears
Still holds on to the years
She left me here
Upon my back
I have no wings
I have no armor
The wound still stings
But when I am with you
I have the wings of an angel
To fly us away
And be safe
I speak my mind
No longer afraid
And you stay with me
