They Want to Know
They want to knowbut I don't want to tell
I was fed up with it
but I told someone
and I feel better
but I don't want to tell anymore.
I wish I had just kept my mouth shut
I wish they could know what it feels like
to feel how I feel
wonderful
whole
but I can't give that love away
I'm greedy!
I wish I could break down the barrier
and just let them know without telling them
but I can't
or won't.
It isn't that I don't want them to know
and it isn't that I don't trust them
but I can't tell
because this person I love
I shouldn't love.
