Pride of Dishonesty

By: Meg Marie Flemings

Simple words of wisdom
Can I tell you I really care?
Can the feelings I long inside
Be broken by thin air?

Can I see you dishonestly
By the thoughts in my mind?
Will my heart come to rescue
When I see the truth on high?

I wanna tell you something
I can't make it clear,
Shall I tell you my feelings
Or let the pride reign?

Will my heart break upon reason
That you do not understand?
Can you see the pure moment
When I seek out your heart?

Will you allow me to love you?
Will you allow me to care?
Can I really tell you something
About how I can't be here...

My pride is coming shortly
To tell you it's all a lie,
But the truth is I'm being honest
When I tell you I'm hurt inside.

I wanna hold you closely,
Not let go of you yet.
But my life is so close to ending
When you can't give what I need back...
