Passion

I wrote this when I was 14 which was over half my life ago (only just), so it's a little young and innocent but now I have a place to be heard I figured I'd post some old stuff too. Let me know what you think :-)

As the passion burns inside
You light a fire in my heart
As I lie here without you
Surrounded by the dark

I feel like reaching out
But the vision of you disappears
And then the tears start rolling
And out come all the fears

The fears of being lonely
The fears of being alone
Can't stand to be without you
Can't stand to be on my own

When I'm with you I'm happy
You make me feel alive
I feel like I'm in heaven
Until the passion dies

But I must be brave and fearless
For I know you can't be mine
Because I know that you don't love me
Though they say that love is blind

I'll have to come to terms with it
And I'll have to face the facts
That you love another
And you won't be turning back

I know you won't come back to me
Not even to say goodbye
So I must stand tall and be intrepid
And try my best not to cry

I'll tell myself you're not worth it
And that I deserve the best
As I sit up at night crying
Clenching my pillow to my chest

And as the next day approaches
You seem to drift away
Drift away from my memories
To come back another day
