Don'T Tell Me

Don’t tell me you love me
You can’t.
You don’t even know me.
You don’t know the secrets I keep inside
The tears I try to hide
The desires for something different, something real
Or the way I really want to feel
I’m scared to tell you these things
Scared to share my feelings
Because you haven’t understood them
Why should I try again?
So don’t tell me that you love me
Unless you are willing to know who I am
The real me….
Don’t tell me you love me
Tell me that you want to
That would be true
But don’t tell me that you do
Because I don’t know right now if I want to love you
But the truth is, I do
I do, I do love you
