All This Time

All this time
I've been hiding
In my own little corners of the world
Sheltered and protected but always alone

They see me as strong
With no need for anyone
Deep inside I am weak
Waiting for love to come along

You do not see me but I am here
You do not hear me, yet I listen for your voice
You are so far
But I am always with you

In my unseen and unheard ways
You must know that I am true
Whether you're near or far away
I will keep on loving you

For how long can you stay away
And how distant can you be
When you are always in my heart
In the deepest part of me

You leave and I the same
Again missing the chance to say
That I have loved you
All this time
