Fear (I)

I remember the day we first met
You had fear in your eyes
Fear of being rejected, of not being loved

I remember the weeks that followed
You had admiration in your eyes
Admiration for me, the one you loved

I remember the months that went by
You had desire in your eyes
Desire to love me and also be loved

I remember the years that passed by
You had faith in your eyes
Faith in me, in the love we shared

Looking back into the past
I realise, the years flew by so fast

It was like a dream
Seen with eyes wide open
And then I blinked...

Now I hardly get to see you
Forget about hearing from you

It's my turn now
Can't you see the fear in my eyes
Fear of being neglected, of not being loved?

I try to run away from it
But the fear blinds me
Fear of being ignored, of being lonely...

It eclipses my existence
And I keep groping in the dark
Trying to find myself...
