Gold Behind your Eyes



Can I see you?


Can I ever believe you again

after all this pain has been.

Can we ever be just friend

or is there no way to amend.


Sorry to cast you aside

but my wound is still open wide.

Perhaps you've healed and I should too,

But I think I was hurt more than you.


So for now I will just hide,

Let my fear keep me inside.

Until my present is brighter than my past

I'm afraid my fear will last.
