Because I am Woman Trapped Inside a Man's Body



By stealing glances of you
I'm a thief.
By taking you away from reality
and putting you inside my heart
I'm a kidnapper.
By denying these feeling I have for you
I'm a liar.

"I love you",
in the silence of three words proud
need not to be reveal.

Guilty feelings just kept inside.
Love.
Locked the ignited me.
Coz I was never these way before
A prisoner of my own secrets.
I am but a slave of my own soul.
Love, waiting to be cherished by you
Until for the last time.
But is these time for revealing myself?
Will I not be condemned by the society?

Because I'm involve to a man
And I am woman trapped inside a man's body.
It hurts, yes it really hurts
To accept the reality
That my love for you just ended as a dream.
