You... Poem by Shannon Martin

Just the thought of losing you... I cannot bare.
Sometimes i know you don't believe me
It's like a game of truth or dare.
You have this hard outter shell, just like me.
Long ago it was hard to break
You thought if you let me in that it would of been a mistake
It's like you were so hard to understand, and hard to take.
You let your guard up and those walls were hard to break.

Now the tables have turned... as the years passed by
You have let your feelings show
Somethings said i never thought i'd know.
I don't know why it's so hard for me to let my feelings always show
It's hard for me to just open up
and tell you everything that you want to know.
If there is one thing that i regret...
it's not telling you how i truely felt before
as much as i wanted you to know
You would of thought i was lying
but inside i was really dying...
dying to let you know, yet afraid to let it show.
