The Love I Bear

The fear we bear.

Pain is that I know

Pain for you the one who will never know

Pain for the love I now

Pain for words I will not tell you

Pain for the answer you will give if I ask

Pain for the thought of you

I build walls so no one can see into my heart

I weep

I cry

I have emotions that are not shared for the great fear I hold

My tears

My laughter

My smile

My eyes

My heart

They all tell the story that I wish would be sung by the voice I own

I am the jailer and the prisoner

The headsman and the exutee

The key to my sorrows is held by me

The salvation I seek is held by me

The story that needs to be told is locked inside a chest

Inside a loving heart

Inside walls I have built to keep my emotions at bay

The end I seek is impossible to reach

It is in my hand all I need to do is open my hand to let it fly free from the walls the pain and the fear
