The simple question

Sometimes I have this thought
That occasionally runs through my head
That maybe you don't feel the same
My heart is just led
Maybe it's my fault for not doing my best sometimes it seems not enough is said
But the next thought of losing you again fills my mind with dread

I don't think you get it
I don't think you know
How much I care
And how little I show
I would stand by you through hill and valley
Every high and every low

There's this feeling
Something deep inside me
Twisting turning tearing
Then I realize it's my heart
Yearning not to let this be

I feel used
I feel confused
I feel neglected
Bare and unprotected

Why can't we be
Why can't we flee
To someplace away from the world
Together
We could float in the clouds
Fast and swift
Light as a feather.
I'm coming from behind the mask
I'm being very bask
So this is the one question I must ask
"Can you not see
The love in me?"
