so soft a touch yet so cold
so sweet a smile yet bitter
so locked up yet free to walk
a summer cold as winter
i glance for just a moment
a quick peek at her beauty
pain quickly sears through my soul
she looks and i smile quaintly
my constant contemplation
small dreams keeping me alive
dreams they’ll remain forever
afraid of taking the dive
because once i jump from here
all will never be the same
i’m too scared of the changes
and too afraid of the shame
