Courage Deserted Me Then... |

Courage Deserted Me Then ... So many thoughts I'd wanted to share, So many feelings I kept hidden inside, They stayed secrets - rejection feared, Not wanting to hurt my foolish pride. I knew not how to express my love, Or how to show the insides of my heart, I feared that you would push and shove, Asking me to go away, tearing me apart. I always wanted to hold you close, and lose myself deep in your eyes, Wanted to sing a song I composed, To make you believe I spoke no lies. I wanted to see a smiling happy you, And share your times of gladness, Wanted to be there to protect you, To comfort you through your sadness. All said but there was nothing I did, Feeling a total lack of courage, Looking back this day, I feel stupid - Nothing left but moral outrage! But my love for you remains eternal, My yearning for you exists as always; To find light at the end of the tunnel, I hope, in this life's lonesome highway. ~ [This message has been edited by Sudhir Iyer (edited 08-01-2000).] |

Such powerful emotions in this wonderful verse Sudhir ... and the closing is so beautifully stated: "To find light at the end of the tunnel, I hope, in this life's lonesome highway." Oh, it's so lovely to have you here again ... please do keep visiting! Best wishes, /Kit |

Sudhir, Ive been gone for awhile and so I almost missed this one. I really can relate to this one because I am allways the shy nice guy who is afraid to act on his feelings. Very well expressed indeed. Jason Just as soon as I belong, then it's time I disapear... -Metallica- |
