含羞草

I want so bad, to open my heart to you           
And I want to hold you forever,
So tightly in my arms,
Because there's no better fit than us
Being together, like this.

But I'm so afraid, for
Doubt binds my hands behind my back
And clasps its hand over my mouth 
And I find myself closing up
Whenever you're near.

*

I want so bad, to open my heart to you
And I want to stay in your arms forever,
So close that I can hear your heartbeat,
Because there's nowhere better than here
Being together, like this.

But I'm so weary, for
There are circumstances and obstacles
An invisible force field between us
And I just want, just need to feel you
Whenever you're near.
