Analysis of Feared Affection
Angela Crabtree 1982 (maine)
Soft whispers, gentle kisses, they all mean so much to me
The affection uncanny, yet subtle
The days seem to fly by, yet some days seem to never end
His soft whispers fading in the wind
His gentle kisses turn into poison
The glow from his eyes so fierce, yet harmless
Time speeding up, racing through our minds
The words from his mouth, so violent and heartless
He turned so quick and fearless
Soft whispers, gentle kisses, they meant so much to me
