Fear

There is this fear inside my heart,
Things that don't last shouldn't start..
At an arms length I'll have to keep,
These feelings of mine have to be buried deep..
Cos things that don't last shouldn't start...
When you take a step towards me,
I'm compelled to retreat..
With each passing day,
I'll be closer to you I'm afraid..
Its impossible to even hope,
That future between us has any scope,
I'm walking on a thin rope..
Its a very sad part,
But things that don't last shouldn't start..
Why not let my a heart just a lil live?

How much will I have to take o give..?
Precious memories and oh so many tears,
Is it reali worth it..
To let my heart jus live a lil bit?
