I Don't Dare

(Inspired by peeking)

I don't dare to look at you

I fear the rushing of blood and the thump-thumping of the heart

And I know sleepless nights follow

Singing lullabies of unreal dreams

I don't dare to look at your face

I fear the shine and glaze in front of my eyes

And it's so blinding I can't see for a while

Stumbling along the line between realities

I don't dare to look into your eyes

I fear the reflection of the stranger I see from its depths

And feel everything crashes down like storms

Thundering everywhere till everything's wrong.

I don't dare, no, I don't dare to tell you that,

Because that's what we do

We keep our distance

When we keep our secrets, secret.

Dare me now, dare me,

Cause I don't dare.
