Secrets

Do you think you want him to ask the question
when you don't even know how to answer?

The distance between us creates sparks.
I could feel our magnetism.
I try my best to run away
and I know you get hurt in the process
But I don't know how to handle my feelings
breaking a dam to release a huge deluge.

I am afraid for what I feel
And everyday it grows stronger
At the sight of you it throbs inside
Your presence keep me on my toes.

How do I even tell you this?
When I know we feel the same way
but we don't know if we want to.
We don't know where the road goes.

I am afraid of letting you get the upper hand
Even though I know you won't hurt me.
Because I might hurt you.
Because someday I might realize it's not you.

I would hate to leave you out in the cold
I would hate to tell you it won't work
I would hate to break your heart
So I try to be careful from the start.

But it doesn't change the difficulty
Of me wanting you and you wanting me.
It's unexplainable and a bit irrevocable
All we can have is this distance and tension.
