Only Love


I hide within my own soul

Draw back the truth you thought you did know

Why do you try to keep me apart

From the only person who holds my heart

I thought that I would never know love

But now I hold it in my hands

You try to rule from above

And tear away who helps me stand

My soul, it yearns to be with him

Even though pain is all I can give

So please, together let us stay

As I hide from the sun-lit rays
