hiding

if you peek around the corner

look behind the oak tree

you might see a flash of color

a whisk of hair that’s me

if you’re faster than a bullet

shine the light just right

the one who’s disappearing

is me into the night

i’m hiding in the shadows

afraid you’ll never find me

running from the truth

of what my life could be

but deep inside i know

i’m longing to be found

caught in a love divine

that sweeps me off the ground

somehow i still believe

this love beyond my mind

could come from someone here

from one i hope to find
