May be because..

Behind the curtains what is true?
Why everything seems to be new?
What does my heart really seek?
Whom it wants to sneak a peek?
Whose thoughts every time fill it?
Why can I never conceal it?

May be because it shows on my face.
It rekindles my soul and augments my grace.
Maybe because it lifts up my spirit.
Under any circumstance, it has a warm greet.
Maybe because he comes in my dream.
And I love to be 'myself' with him.

But why can I never tell him all this?
Am I afraid that our chats will cease?
Will I never confess anything then?
Will I always smile even in pain?
What is bothering me – a sullen ego?
How can I easily let this love go?

May be because I am very scared
That if he rejects my life will be flared.
May be because I can't lose his amity,
I want his genuine friendship till eternity.
May be because I will have nothing to lose
If he leaves me in the ultimate blues.
