The weight of a a guilt that is not mine
Longing for a gentle touch, tender embrace
Letting me know that all will be fine
A brave face presented
To hide all my fears
A smile, forced laugh
To stave off the flow of tears
But slowly, the emptiness that I feel
Builds and builds, so deeply inside
Don't let the see, my inner heart
Don't let them know that I am falling apart
Wanting so badly to feel complete
Not knowing if I will ever feel
The love of another for me
Caring for who I am
I wish that I knew the thoughts in her head
Could see the feelings in her heart
And let I stand, forevermore
A sad and lonely man.
