A Piece of Paper

Life is hard when you love someone and you don't dare speak a word to him about how you feel.
You're close to him but you can't reveal your true feelings.
So you confide on a piece of paper.
You hope and pray he never finds out.
The secret eats at your soul. 
You had the chance to tell him yet you stayed silent.
Now it eats at you day after day, night after night.
You wish he were there with you.
But you still deny your feelings for him.
You feel your stomach tighten up when you tell him you have no feelings for him.
You feel the guilt for not telling him the truth.
But to tell him the truth you would get hurt because he does not feel the same.
You have no choice but to lie to him.
It hurts to lie to him but you have to.
So you keep your secret from him.
You confide on a piece of paper.
