I guarded my feelings
Fiercely against my chest
For I knew intuitively
That it was not my place to share
Not now, not yet
Instinctively I knew
When the time had come
To allow him into my life
And at that moment
We were both ready
To open our hearts
And share our lives

Is there such a thing as “fiercely in love” that one will rather die than not to have the one he loves?

Isn’t the Romeo and Juliet story somewhat reminiscent?
